"Henry Felix & Co., manufacturers and dealers in fine confections, ice cream, cakes, and fruits, 10 N. Market Square, Harrisburg. . . . M. F. Tobin, N.Y. Scheffer, job printer, Harrisburg." A stock Victorian-era advertising trade card produced by New York lithographer M. F. Tobin in 1881. Theodore F. Scheffer, a local Harrisburg printer, added the information for Henry Felix and Company. See below for some other amusing and interesting trade cards.

"Holiday Greetings of E. R. Barry, the Hanover St. Confectioner. Bufford." Although this advertising trade card likely dates to the 1880s or 1890s, E. R. Barry continued in business into the twentieth century, as evidenced by the text of an advertisement in The Manchester [New Hampshire] Directory, 1908 (Boston: Sampson and Murdock, 1907): "E. R. Barry Co., confectioners, caterers, and bakers, ice cream, etc. Dinner served from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at 35 cents. Odd Fellows' Block, 81 and 89 Hanover Street, Manchester, N.H."
