Trade Card for Shoneman Brothers, Dress Goods

This trade card advertises Shoneman Brothers, a dress goods store in Philadelphia. The front of the card depicts a baby sitting in a highchair. The baby is holding a quill pen and a small bottle of ink and is seemingly writing in a book on the table. The back of the card contains a full advertisement. This image appears to be a second card from the same company. The image on the second card is not as clear but depicts a man on the left and a woman on the right holding some sort of drapery or fabric.
