Abstract
  • Trade card for Garland stoves and ranges, Detroit, Chicago, & Buffalo: “Aesthetic stoves are all the style. Some very tame, some very ‘Wilde’, Garlands always are the best far excelling all the rest.” Garland stoves and ranges were manufactured from 1864 in a small foundry in Detroit, which subsequently grew in size to become the Michigan Stove Company in 1873. This trade card features a colour illustration of a female figure, sitting on a stool with legs outstretched and a giant sunflower surrounding her head. Beside her is a white lily in a blue vase. Influenced by the aesthetic movement. Illustration copyright 1882 M.B. Mills. On the verso is a red ink stamp (very faded): “Sold by J.S. Cooley & Son, Canandaigua, N.Y.”
