Arnold's Victorian Fashion

Disembarking from her coach, we hope this young lady will soon find a welcoming hearth to warm her! This enlargement is from a Lion Coffee card featured in https://goo.gl/stJqCS the Arnold's Lions Collection. #EmmaJanesFavoriteFashions #bestarnoldcards #ArnoldsLions

The caption on this trade card was Our Idol. Who was this? Who idolized her? Evidently she suffered the same fate as the rest of us, idolized one day and forgotten the next! In her day of prominence, she dressed well. This trade card was blank on the back and without the mark of any advertiser. It did have a note that claimed it was copyrighted, but didn't reveal who held the copyright. Due to its age, it no longer matters. It is now in the public domain. #EmmaJanesFavoriteFashions #bestarnoldcards

Nice design, but too much blue for many, this formal wear graced the back of a trade card advertising...you guessed it..."Spanish Bluing." Click https://goo.gl/BGQK28 then scroll down. #EmmaJanesFavoriteFashions #ArnoldGalleries
