EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century lithograph captures Whitelaw Reid, a prominent figure in American journalism and politics. As the editor of the New York Tribune, Reid played a significant role in shaping public opinion during this era. The image showcases his distinguished appearance, with a well-groomed moustache and beard that were popular among men of influence at the time. Reid is depicted wearing a stylish suit and coat, reflecting his status as an influential member of society. The color lithography adds depth to the print, bringing out the rich tones of his clothing and highlighting his commanding presence. The attention to detail in this trade card demonstrates Allen & Ginter's commitment to producing high-quality prints for their cigarette brands. The Metropolitan Museum of Art houses this remarkable piece as part of its American Editors series (N1). This collection pays homage to individuals who made significant contributions to journalism and publishing during America's formative years. Through this lithotint print, viewers can catch a glimpse into Reid's world - one filled with political intrigue, newspaper pressrooms buzzing with activity, and an unwavering dedication to informing the public. As we admire this portrait today, it serves as a reminder of how far our country has come in terms of media development while honoring those who paved the way for modern-day journalists.
