Item 483652 ◊ 1891 Chromolithograph Trade Card For "Pearline Soap" entitled "Stealing a Kiss"
Very rare and fascinating "1891 Chromolithograph Trade Card For "Pearline Soap" entitled 'Stealing a Kiss'"  The Trade Card measures approx. 4" by 2-1/2".  This trade card depicts a young girl of about 4 years old, who seems not to appreciate the sudden kiss, which her boyfriend is bestowing on her.  Nevertheless they are both cute kids and probably helped sell a lot of this product.  The front of the card shows the trademark, "James Pyles, Pearline."
The back of the card is where the claims really start.  James Pyles advertises that, you don't need to have rough looking hands from washing clothes in "regular soap."   "With Pearline a delicate woman can do a large wash… and save many hours of woman's hardest work."  The graphics will inspire you to go find an antique container of Pearline and wash all your clothes by hand.
To learn more about this modern, time-saving soap, all you have to do is bid on this Auctions.
This wonderful and original "1891 Chromolithograph Trade Card"  is in very good condition.   There is no surface damage, or edge and corner wear.  The chromolithograph illustration is beautiful, very colorful, and incredibly realistic.  The printing on the back is clear and easy to read.  The only reason we rate it "very good" instead of "excellent" is because a previous owner used glue to attach card in a scrapbook, and you can see the brown streaks on the back.  And if that wasn't enough, apparently a previous owner got a small floral scrap stuck to the back.  So you're getting a little extra bonus.  Ha ha! (See the Photos above.)
Delightful and unique,  the "1891 Chromolithograph Trade Card For "Pearline Soap" entitled 'Stealing a Kiss'"   is a  wonderful example Chromolithography of the time, and would be a fantastic addition to any Victorian era collection!!!
