This record contains two trade cards for Joseph Emanuel & Co., a dry goods store located at 1204 South Fifth Street in St. Louis, Missouri. The front of the first card (image 1) features a small illustration of a green bird flying above flowers, likely an artistic element meant to be eye-catching. The text on the front clearly states the business' name and address: "EMANUEL, JOSEPH & CO." and "FRENCH MARKET, 1204 SOUTH FIFTH ST."
