Image
Front and back of three advertising cards with color illustrations of a woman named "Minnie" and the same man in three different scenes. The front of the left card features "Minnie" binding grain by hand while the man stands nearby. The back advertises the "Automatic Packer Trip." The middle card has a color illustration of "Minnie" and the man walking, with the man pulling the "'Minnie'-Apolis" on which an infant is riding. The back of the card has another illustration of the harvester. The right card is of "Minnie" harvesting grain by hand with a hand scythe while looking back at the man who is tipping his hat at her. The back of the card has an illustration of a twine binder.
