Sort of like those S&H Green Stamps from our childhoods: I bought this beautiful pre-1893 trade card because of its design and the illustration, but found the whole message about premiums even more fascinating than the tape measure image.. There's hardly any information about the "Shred Cocoanut" itself. Now I'll have to find one of those "complete Catalogues" to see what the other premiums were!
