Trade Card - H. Roman, San Francisco, circa 1885
This colorful trade card advertises H. Roman, a manufacturer and importer of fine clothing and furnishing goods, located at 38 & 40 Kearny Street, S. E. Cor. Post, San Francisco. The card features a chromolithographic illustration depicting three children in period clothing: two standing, and one peering over a wooden fence, adjacent to a large sign displaying the business name and address. The decorative imagery and ornate text are characteristic of late 19th-century advertising materials.
