A chromolithographed cigar label, the kind printed to dress up boxes and bundles in the late 1800s, makes this one stand out from the usual horse studies on the board. It shows a jockey mounted on a bay horse, with the bold lettering of the Daly's Tammany brand announcing the product. Labels like this were cheap, colorful advertising, and many were saved as collectibles, so the sporting imagery of a racing rider was a deliberate draw for male smokers of the period. Look closely at the lithography, where the layered color blocks show how much hand work went into mass-produced commercial art of the era.
