    Description

    This scarce card  was issu
    ed
    by the SINGER SEWING MACHINE Co. of the U.S.A,  as an advertising premium for their machines.   The series is entitled FLOWERS FOR REMEMBERANCE and is listed in Burdicks American Card Catalogue as series H702.   I have not been able to find a listed date of issue for this series but I speculate that it must have been sometime during the 1890's, as many of the Series of cards that singer issued were from a similar time period.     The front of each card  features a stunning and colorful illustration of the featured flower, while the back features advertising for their line of products.   This card features PANSIES  . The Card measures 5 3/4 inches by 3 5/8 inches approximately.  This card does have some corner creasing, and some areas of slight discoloration.  However I think it displays very well.    I have scann
    ed
    the card fairly large for you to be able to judge condition for yourself .  This is one of the tougher of the Singer issued series of cards to come by.  They don’t come up on ebay all that often.
    I  will be trying to list several  EARLY TRADE & TYPE CARDS over the next few days (spread across different categories),
    including one or two that are unrecorded in any guide, that were put given away with Tobacco, Caramel, Candy, Gum, Chocolate, Bread Coffee Tea Cereal and other products, covering such diverse subjects as Native American Indians , Baseball , Football, Boy Scouts, Ice Hockey, Golf, Presidents of the United States, NCAA and IVY League Colleges and Universities and Circus themes.  To view the other cards I have up on ebay please click  on the “View Sellers other Items” Icon located on this page. It will take you directly to them.
    I am actually located in Canada just across the border.  I have a U.S.A. mailing address, and I mail my items from the USA to avoid border delays.
    Due to my work schedule and distance to the post office I am only able to ship  Monday Mornings
    .  If I haven’t received payment for an item the EVENING BEFORE Monday  the item will have to wait until the next Monday  to go out. Its unfortunate but unavoidable.  If this doesn’t work for you I respectfully ask that you do not bid or buy. Thanks again
