Notes
Front text: "Dressing for the Ball, a Romance of COOLEY'S GLOBE CORSET..."  This metamorphic trade card for Cooley’s Globe Corset shows an illustration thicker-waisted Miss Smith complaining to Miss Jones, and when the card is unfolded shows the transformed slimmed Miss Smith wearing her Globe Corset. The ink appears to be shades of dark blue.  The back of the card has text in the colour red, stating, " CORSETS at Ehrich's, 8th Avenue and 24th Street". The top right part of the back of the card is peeled off.
