Pansies' Playtime

Pansies' Playtime
A colorful Victorian-era advertising trade card for the Standard Sewing Machine Company.

Stamped on the other side: "Horace Brillinger, Emigsville, Pa."

Standard Rotary Shuttle Sewing Machine

The highest priced lock stitch machine made. But the cheapest, because the best. The nation's pride. Compliments of the Standard Sewing Machine Co., Cleveland, O., U.S.A. Pansies' Playtime. M. F. Tobin, N.Y.

we used to have an advertising museum - the only one in the states - it was so much fun to go there (must have been mis-managed as after a number of years it had to close and disperse it's collection). advertisements give so much of the culture of the day. this one says so much - and is funny!
