Description: S. l. Franco - American Food Company, 1895. First Edition. Large card, n. d. (ca 1895); 8 3/4 x 6; single sheet of card stock - chromolithographed illustration to recto, text to verso in red and black; two holes to upper margin, as issued, for hanging; rubbed spots to corners of verso from previously being affixed in a scrapbook (not affecting text), else mild wear; in very good condition. A beautiful advertising piece, it illustrated a cherubic-faced chef holding a stock pot of steaming soup and listed a variety of soups in different-sizes cans and tins. The Franco - American Food Company was founded in 1886 by French-American Alphonse Biardot. He opened a commercial kitchen with his sons in Jersey City and would rapidly gain success, specifically for their line of canned soup and pasta, which would be acquired by Campbell's in 1915. Very good .
