Description
Vintage Trade Card
circa 1890's - early 1900's
"Compliments of the Domestic Sewing Machine Co."
Cute little girl relaxes in a cozy book nook with her cat.
Domestic Sewing Machine Company was founded in 1864 in Norwalk, Ohio. Domestic was a premier manufacturer of vibrating shuttle sewing machines from the 1870s through 1880s-- at a time when Singer only manufactured reciprocating shuttle models for domestic use.
In the late 1880s or early 1890s, the company introduced the New Domestic, which had a more modern, disc-type tension mechanism and the stitch length knob was located on the front of the machine.
Domestic was purchased by the White Sewing Machine Company in 1924, and became a subsidiary of the White Company.
Trade cards typically have a picture on one side and an ad on the other. There were custom cards printed for specific products, and stock cards which could be used for any product. Trade cards were popular for medicines, sewing, and farm equipment, and a range of other products.
Vintage item from my post card and ephemera collections, free stock for yours.
Use however you like. Enjoy!
