19th C. Polar Bears on Ice Flow with Arctic Hams Trade Card.

An attractive and dramatic card, featuring two angry polar bears on an 
ice flow, jealously guarding their Arctic Hams, “mild sugar-cured in 
artificial temperature”. Prepared by Merry, Faull & Co. provision 
packers, of San Francisco.  Presumably after seven or eight months 
aboard ship, nobody really cared what they tasted like.  Card. 5.5”x3”. 
Minor soil.  [46474]  $150
