Scotland, Thistle Mark - A Glimpse into the 19th Century Cigarette Culture
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This chromolithograph print titled "Scotland, Thistle Mark" is part of the renowned series Coins of All Nations (N72) created by Duke brand cigarettes in 1889. Produced by W. Duke Sons & Co. , a prominent American tobacco company at the time, this commercial color lithograph offers a fascinating insight into both Scottish heritage and the cigarette industry during the late 19th century. The image showcases a full-length caricatured Scottish man proudly holding a thistle merk coin, symbolizing Scotland's rich history and national identity. The vibrant colors bring to life every detail of his traditional attire and rugged features, capturing the essence of Scottish culture. As an intriguing collectible piece from that era, this lithograph not only highlights currency and finance but also sheds light on societal norms surrounding smoking habits. It serves as a testament to how cigarette cards were once popular among collectors who sought to complete sets featuring various countries' coins. Now housed in The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, this unknown artist's work continues to captivate viewers with its historical significance and artistic charm. This print transports us back to an era when smoking was not only socially acceptable but also celebrated through beautifully crafted illustrations like these – reminding us of our ever-evolving cultural landscape.
