Trade Card for A. Jessel, Ladies' Dress and Dry Goods

This trade card for A. Jessel, a ladies' dress and dry goods store in Columbia, Pennsylvania, features a young girl dressed in floral-patterned clothing. The girl stands in a pose reminiscent of Victorian-era fashion plates. She is depicted in the center of the card, with text above her and below, likely indicating the name of the business and address. The back of the card is blank.
