United States, 1880. Very good. Light soiling to verso. A handsome advertising card for the Smith Premier Typewriter, die-cut in the shape of the product it advertises. On the back is a printed advertisement for "Mrs. A.L. Whisler, Private Instructor of Shorthand, Typewriting, Business Correspondence" of Cleveland, Ohio. Diecut and chromolithographed, measuring approx. 3" by 4" Although there are many advertising pieces die-cut in shapes during this period, there are only a small number that depict the actual product they are advertising.
