EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Samuel Colt, a renowned American industrialist and inventor, in a printers sample for the Worlds Inventors souvenir album. Created in 1888 by Allen & Ginter Cigarettes, this stunning lithograph captures the essence of Colt's contribution to American history. In this portrait, Colt exudes an air of confidence and determination with his bearded face and distinguished moustache. Holding one of his revolutionary firearms - a revolver - he symbolizes innovation and progress in the field of weaponry during the 19th century. Colt's impact on society is evident not only through his inventions but also through his portrayal as a famous figure in literature and art. This trade card serves as a testament to his legacy as an influential individual who shaped America's identity during times of war and warfare. The vibrant colors used in this print highlight both the artistic value of the piece and its historical significance. As part of The Metropolitan Museum of Art collection, it represents our country's rich heritage while showcasing Allen & Ginter's dedication to promoting cultural appreciation through their tobacco products. As we admire this image, let us remember Samuel Colt as more than just an inventor or industrialist; he was an embodiment of American ingenuity that forever changed the course of science, technology, and warfare.
