[Toys]  French Victorian Toy Store Illustrated Trade Card.  $85

An attractive and eye-catching Victorian trade card for a Paris toy 
store, Au Paradis des Enfants, on the Rue de Rivoli. The back lists some 
of the many articles they offer in stock, the front appears to picture a 
mechanical dog, carrying an infant, in a fish tank. I’m somewhat 
surprised no 1960s rock band appropriated this image for an album cover. 
  Card. 4”x2.75”. Minor soil, light wear, slight crease.  [45369]
