EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating 19th-century chromolithograph captures the grandeur of the Steamship State of Texas, a proud vessel belonging to the Mallory Line. Part of the iconic Ocean and River Steamers series, this print was originally created as a collectible cigarette card for Duke brand cigarettes in 1887. The image showcases the ship majestically sailing through American waters, with its impressive size and striking red hull commanding attention. The State of Texas proudly displays multiple flags fluttering in the wind, symbolizing its role as an emblematic representative of United States maritime power. Amidst this industrial scene, a group of women can be seen on board, adding a touch of elegance to this bustling transportation hub. Their presence highlights both the growing role that women played in society during this time period and their association with leisure activities such as smoking. As we gaze upon this lithograph from an era long gone by, we are transported back to a time when steamships ruled the seas and represented progress and adventure. This artwork not only serves as a testament to America's rich shipping industry but also stands as a reminder of our nation's history and heritage.
