Description: This fantastic card was issued by the ALLEN and GINTER. Tobacco Co. of Richmond Virginia, as an insert premium in their brands of Tobacco and Cigarettes during 1889. This card is from a fairly rare series of 50 cards entitled , “ GAME BIRDS ” . Designated as N13 in Burdick’s American Card Catalogue . The front of the card features a stunning image of a particular species of bird (the images are very similar to period Audubon images). The back features a list of the 50 cards in the series with advertising for Allen & Ginter of Richmond Virginia . The Lithography for the card is exceptional, and was done by Harris and Son’s Co of Philadelphia. This card features a KILDEER PLOVER . The Card measures 2 ¾ inches by 1 ½ inches approximately. The card does have a couple of sports of discoloration to the back, and some light corner wear. It is free from major creases. I have scanned the card, both front and back, I will be trying to list several EARLY TRADE & TYPE CARDS over the next few days (spread across different categories), including one or two that are unrecorded in any guide, that were put given away with Tobacco, Cigarettes , Caramel, Candy, Gum, Chocolate, Bread Coffee Tea Cereal and other products, covering such diverse subjects as Native American Indians , Baseball , Football, Boy Scouts, Ice Hockey, Golf, Presidents of the United States, NCAA and IVY League Colleges and Universities, Dog Breeds, Circus themes and many more.
