A tobacco label produced for C.S. Allen & Company, bearing a patriotic emblem of the mutuality of Liberty and the Union--clearly designed to appeal to Northern sentiments. The two ideals are personified by women. The title notwithstanding, one of them (on the left) appears to be a young girl and the other a mature woman. They are framed in an ornate oval surmounted by an eagle with a shield.
Entered . . . 1863 by C.S. Allen & Co. Segar Manrs.
Milton Bradley lith. Springfield, Mass.
Title appears as it is written on the item.
