Trade cards like this one promoted Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder, made by Steele & Price of Chicago and St. Louis, and the color lithograph was printed by Hughes & Johnson of Chicago. Manufacturers of the 1880s and 1890s distributed such cards widely, often through stores and packaged goods, and baking powder was a common subject as home cooks still mixed leavening into their own batters. The scene of women at domestic work ties the product to the ideal of the capable homemaker, a link advertisers relied on throughout the period.
