    Description

    Victorian Trade Card from the Johnson, Clark & Co., manufacturers of the Light-Running "New Home" Sewing Machine, in Orange, Massachusetts.
    --------------
    Note:  William Barker and Andrew J. Clark began producing the "New England Single Thread Hand Sewing Machine" in Orange, Massachusetts in 1860. Over the next 20 years, the New England machine and the "Home Shuttle" were their two most significant products. In 1882, the company reformed under the name New Home.

    An Optical Illusion is printed on the card, along with advertising copy.
    This is a 3-1/2" x 3-5/8" card, printed on one side only.
    (c.1880s?)
    It is in very good condition, with some minor wear and age-darkening.
