Huntington Pianos · Carlson Fable Collection

Title: Huntington Pianos
Description: 1885? 8 colored cards (apparently from a series of 8) used for Huntington Pianos with factories in Shelton, CT. "32" in the lower left of each card's picture. $16 from Johns' Western Gallery, San Francisco, August, '06.

Individual cards may be identical with those from a set for McPhail Pianos. They share the "32" on the front of each card. They also seem to share the unusual characteristic of having only the fable text and the company name and place on the verso of each card. They seem otherwise to be the same as the various cards I have listed under J.P. Coats. The set includes:

The Swan and the Cook
The Fighting Cocks and the Eagle
CP
FC
GGE
LM
OF
TH
Unfortunately, none of them presents a new mirror-opposite of the cards I already have. For those see the page presenting the whole set under the name Coats.
Date: 1885?
