K C Baking Powder was made by the Jacques Manufacturing Company of Chicago, according to the caption card, and this 1899 color poster was printed in Cincinnati by the U.S. Printing Company. Its lithographed design reflects how packaged baking powder was marketed in the late 1800s, when national brands competed for housewives' attention through large, colorful advertising. Posters like this one were displayed in grocery stores and shop windows, where bright graphics and a simple brand name helped a product stand out on crowded shelves.
