Addenda 2: The DiMambro

Trade Card Scrapbook Video You can view the original scrapbook that is the basis for the Earl J. Arnold Advertising Card Collection in person in the Cornell University Library . To give you an idea of what it is like to view a Victorian trade card scrapbook in person , here is a video of one that was sold in 2018. It is followed by a page-by-page review featuring the original narration as transcribed from YouTube : This video advertised a scrapbook that was sold by:   Brian DiMambro Antiquarian Published on Jan 23, 2018 " Excellent 19th century trade card album. As acquired, with over 600 chromolithographed cards and approx. 200 small cut-out chromolithographed scraps of the era. Ornate embossed cover, profusion of cards glued in as typical (almost certainly organic animal glue of the era, so readily removable by soaking).
