Liebig trading cards


This is a trading card produced by the German company, Liebig. Established in 1860s, Liebig produced meat products, including a meat extract similar to the later Oxo. The trading cards first appeared as a marketing tool in 1872, and are now highly collectable. This one, showing the Man in the Iron Mask, with his gaoler, Saint-Mars and a servant, is one of six to depict scenes from the reign of Louis XIV.
