A scanned collection of 36 pages of chromolithographed Victorian trade cards advertising Clark's Mile-End and O.N.T. spool cotton, made by the Clark Thread Company (John Clark Jr. & Co.). The cards show children, animals, verses, landscapes, famous people, the Jumbo the elephant series, and Columbian Exposition 1893 views. Some carry the stamps of local dry goods merchants. The pages are image-only and have no weaving content.
