Thanks for sharing this trade card. I hadn't seen it before.

I will add it to my page about the Newspaper Hat - David Mitchell's Origami 
Heaven - History - The Newspaper 
Hat<https://www.origamiheaven.com/historyofthenewspaperhat.htm> - and, since it 
is an early example, also to my page about Paperfolding in 
Advertising<https://www.origamiheaven.com/historyofpaperfoldinginadvertising.htm>.

If anyone ever comes across a mention of the Newspaper Hat prior to 1832 please 
let me know!

Dave
