Geography: Cambridge

This trade card features a political cartoon of James G. Blaine, a prominent Republican figure in the late 19th century, with the text "Vote for whom you please, but buy your clothing from L. Hirschberg." The cartoon's style is typical of political cartoons from that era. The back of the card is an advertisement from a printer offering similar cards for $2.50 per 1000.

This trade card, issued by L. Hirschberg, a clothing merchant in Cambridge, Ohio, is a dual-sided advertisement. The front features a portrait of a political candidate, possibly from the 1884 election, with a caption encouraging voters to 'Vote for Whom You Please,' but to 'Buy Your Clothing from Hirschberg.' This suggests Hirschberg aimed to associate his business with civic engagement. The back of the card displays an advertisement for ordering cards to sell, indicating a possible additional business venture or a strategy to increase sales. The style of the imagery and text suggests a late 19th-century origin.

This 38-page pamphlet contains Henry Ware Jr.'s poem, "The Feast of Tabernacles," written for musical accompaniment by Charles Zeuner. Published in Cambridge, Massachusetts by John Owen in 1837, with Folsom, Wells, and Thurston as printers, the poem was intended for performance at the Odeon by the Boston Academy of Music choir. This version differs from the oratorio version, as noted in the author's preface, maintaining the original form for independent readership.
