Title: Camels trade card, around 1890 [Go to resource]
Description: This series of small advertisements illustrates the ways that Huntley & Palmers' biscuits reached the four corners of the globe. The idea of the trade card as a brightly coloured collectable picture came from America in the nineteenth century. In Britain, trade cards had been usually black and white, despite the arrival of multicoloured cards in Europe during the 1880s.
