Trade Card: M. Noah Cigar Manufacturer, Little Falls, New York
This trade card advertises M. Noah, a cigar manufacturer in Little Falls, New York. The front of the card features a striking graphic of a Native American figure, depicted in a stereotypical and potentially offensive manner. The image is likely intended to evoke the exotic nature of cigars and their origins, but it also reflects the racist attitudes prevalent in the 19th century. Below the illustration, the text clearly states the business name and address: "M. NOAH CIGAR MANUFACTURER," "Main Street next door east of the Cottage Hall, Little Falls, New York." The back of the card is blank. This trade card likely dates from 1867.
