The album this card came from was full of Trade Cards from Connecticut. The album was started in 1885 and has a large number of very nice cards - this is one of them. Hunt's Remedy Company based in Providence, Rhode Island sold this medicine for 75 cents and $1.25. Cured a lot of diseases of the kidneys and claimed many other cures. Wow. We should have this medicine today!!! This card is one-hundred and twenty-four years old! Their are no tears or rips on this one. On the back one tiny paper loss in one word near the bottom and a small crease running from middle of her neck almost to edge. It's so slight you hardly notice it.
