1880s French or Dutch Cod Liver Oil Medicine for Children Pictorial Trade Card

Description

1880s French/Dutch Cod Liver Oil for Children Trade Card.
- - -
DISCUSSION:
An exuberant and perhaps slightly deceptive trade card, in French & Dutch, featuring a picture of four young children asking, indeed begging, for a dose of cod liver oil which their well-dressed mama callously holds over their heads in a crystal goblet. Cod liver oil was apparently more popular with the kiddos in Europe than it was in the States. “Huille de Foile de Morue de Jensen, Levertraan Van Jensen”.”
