    Scarce 1910 Black Americana Original reduced Advertising Poster Lithograph by G.H.E. Hawkins Poster Advertising Book. His Chicago advertising company campaign brainchild for Faibanks Gold dust Soap Flakes was very successful. The two cartoon Twins Goldie and Dustie appeared in many different ads and the product sold well for 60 years. The products (along with Goldie and Dustie) were phased out by the mid-1950s, as national sensibilities began to change. I have other RARE original Hawkins reduced lithograph posters in my store. I have thousands of Art Nouveau Art Deco original pages as well as antique engravings and maps to sell. Thank you for looking.

It is shown just sitting there placed in front of the mother in the back seat. It is a folding design so any impact would propel the mother forward folding the crib and squishing her poor baby.

    This is a 1923 original ad for a Benjamin cyclecars. These were small cars produced in the early 1900's. One of thousands of antique ads I want to sell. Here is more on cyclecars from Wikipedia: A cyclecar was a type of small, lightweight and inexpensive car manufactured mainly between 1910 and the late 1920s. Cyclecars were characterised by their use of basic materials and sometimes fragile engineering and were largely contrived to fill a gap in the market between the motorcycle and the car. Their demise was largely the result of production economies in the manufacture of more substantial economy cars such as the Austin 7 and the consequent affordability of such vehicles. Vehicles with similar qualities produced after World War II, are generally categorized as microcars. - WIKIPEDIA Thank you for looking.
