Arbuckle Coffee Trading Card: District Of Columbia

This card concludes the state and territory series copyrighted by Arbuckle Coffee in 1889. I hope you enjoyed looking back at this illustrated history of the nation just one generation removed from its redefinition through the Civil War. If there is continued interest on the part of OTR readers, please let me know and I will run another Arbuckle series later this year.
