    Description

    C820 D. M .Bristol circus trade card Eques Curriculum Mattie math educated horse
    Excellent condition. Very clean & sharp.
    Circus is a very scarce topic in advertising trade cards. Bristol was unusual in the amount of advertising he did using trade cards. They are scarce, but he produced 10 or more different imaged trade cards.
    Image: Mattie, a Bristol Educated Horse, is doing an arithmetic subtraction incorrectly in the dirt with her hoof . . . . or something. I do not quite get what is going on. But I flunked math in 4th grade, so I am no one to assess this image.
    Maybe it is Professor Bristol who wrote the arithmetic problem down and it is his answer that is wrong. That is a better explanation. I like it when professors are wrong.
