The dog takes center stage in this 1885 advertisement for Chew Globe fine cut chewing tobacco from the Globe Tobacco Co. Printed advertising like this was a major tool for selling tobacco in the late 1800s, when brand names competed fiercely on store counters and in print. Dogs appeared often in such advertising, where they suggested loyalty, friendliness, and everyday reliability. Pictures like this one show how manufacturers borrowed familiar animal imagery to make a plain product memorable.
