1890 Ladies Perfumed Calendar Hoyt’s German Cologne Trade Card Victorian

Offered here is an original 1890 “Ladies Perfumed Calendar” advertising card issued by E. W. Hoyt & Co., Lowell, Massachusetts, proprietors of Hoyt’s German Cologne and Rubifoam.

This beautifully lithographed Victorian trade card features an elaborate floral bouquet with dragonflies, surrounded by miniature monthly calendars for the year 1890. The design is delicate, colorful, and emblematic of late-19th-century perfume and toiletry advertising. These were intended as keepsakes and were often lightly scented when originally issued.
