Trade card - Julius Cosel, Youngstown, O., Warren, O., Newcastle, PA., circa 1885
This trade card for Julius Cosel, a New York Clothier, advertises his businesses located in Youngstown, Ohio; Warren, Ohio; and Newcastle, Pennsylvania, dating to approximately 1885. The card features a black and white illustration showing a man (likely a tailor or salesman) fitting a young boy's trousers, while a woman (presumably the boy's mother) stands by. A cat is perched on a table in the background. The caption "THAT JUST SUITS YOU." is prominently displayed at the bottom. The card also notes "Compliments of JULIUS COSEL. New York Clothier" with the branch locations. The imagery and text are characteristic of late 19th-century advertising trade cards.
