Card Number 5, cut-out from banner advertising the Opera Gloves series (G29) for Allen & Ginter Cigarettes ca. 1890 Issued by Allen & Ginter American Series G29 presents cut-outs from a tobacco advertising banner issued by Allen & Ginter between 1885 and 1890.

The popular size was about 30 inches long but a few measured over five feet in length...The tobacco firms were prolific advertisers using a constant procession of banners, especially to publicize their current insert card sets...The usual design illustrates the card pictures from the series inserted into tobacco packaging with a large appropriate center picture." Many consumers would cut up banners in order to "collect" the whole series of cards at once. Although series G29 is not listed in Burdick's "The American Card Catalog," he included notes in his own edition of the book, now included in the collection at

Photo Collage: Woman on Ladder, Holding Spyglass with Man Holding Ladder, and Dog Standing on Hind Legs ca. 1875 Juan Pedro Chabalgoity The carte de visite, a format comprised of an approximately 2 x 4 inch photograph mounted to card stock, was perhaps the most ubiquitous of nineteenth-century photographs. The French studio portrait photographer André-Adolphe-Eugène Disdéri?first patented the carte in 1854. His innovation of exposing not just one but eight photographic images on the same glass plate negative enabled cartes to be made cheaply and reproduced on a mass scale. During the late 1850s and throughout the latter half of the century, these economical keepsakes depicting portraits of loved ones, celebrities, monarchs, and foreign types circulated en masse and spurred a veritable "cartomania."
