Hulman & Co. - Dauntless Coffee (front and back)

Not a postcard but a trade card, the text says...

Dauntless Coffee
Is a blend of high grade Coffee, and is the
Coffee for those who appreciate a good thing.
we buy this Coffee on the plantation where
it is grown, and we buy it as cheap as it can
be bought.
We do not claim to be smarter than any one
else, but we do claim that DAUNTLESS
COFFEE is the equal of any Coffee on the
market sold at the same price, and it is the
same quality as a number of brands for which
a much higher price is paid.
Save your Dauntless Coffee wrappers until
you have 25, cut the word Dauntless from the
side of each wrapper and mail them to us with
your name and Post Office address, and we will
send you in return, postage paid, a large beau-
tiful Imported Picture or a Handsome Sou-
venir Book, containing 17 views of the
World's Fair. Do not fail to specify which
you prefer, souvenir Book or Picture.

Hulman & Co. - Crystal Coffee (front and back)

Not a postcard but a trade card, the text says...

Why
Crystal Coffee
is the Best
Because it is absolutely pure.
Because it is stronger and retains its
strength much longer than any
other coffee.
Because we know the better we make
Crystal Coffee the more we
we sell of it.
Because we import, roast and pack
Crystal Coffee, hence can
afford to give you a better coffee
than any one else for the same
money.

Take notice in mailing Crystal Trade
marks that the word "Crystal" is cut from
the side of the package which bears the words
Trade Mark. Ask your grocer for Crystal
Coffee Premium List.
To guard against fraud and imposition see
that each label bears our name. None others
are genuine.

Hulman Coffee Co.,
Terre Haute, Ind.

The card features a child sitting in a swing holding a kitten. The child appears to be a boy in a smock. It was typical for boys to wear dresses or smocks in the 1800's and into the 1900's until they were potty trained.
