Description
From the sellerHere is a 1898 Church & Co. - Arm & Hammer “Beautiful Birds” #46 "Columbia Magpie”. NOTE: These iconic vintage collectibles were inserted into boxes of Arm & Hammer baking soda starting in the 1880s as an ingenious marketing tool. At a time when everyday Americans rarely had access to books or photographs of exotic wildlife, these vibrant, intricately detailed chromolithograph cards provided an educational window into the natural world. Excellent condition despite its age. Yellowing with age. One bruised corner. Please check out the photos.
