Advertising booklet  courtesy of Judith Lile

The Sea Foam advertising booklet below features the Humpty Dumpty clown. The illustrations are after the style of the famous illustrator and cartoonist Thomas Nast. The Sea Foam product seems to be a baking powder. The booklet carries a Copyright date of 1877. Enjoy its clever use of Humpty Dumpty and rhyme to tout the product.
