Reward of Merit, One TH card · Carlson Fable Collection

Title: Reward of Merit, One TH card
Description: 1880? 1 TH card from the above set by Wemple and Kronheim, stamped "Reward of Merit."

This card, like the two above, includes a prose text of the fable on the back side. The color printing here may be among the best for Wemple and Kronheim cards. Here, as there, "Reward of Merit" tends to have some filigree work around it. It has the fancy "R" found in the card depicting "The Dog and His Master's Dinner."
Date: 1880?
