Trade cards from the "Terrors of America" series (N136), issued in a set of 50 cards in 1889 by W. Duke Sons & Co. to promote Honest Long Cut Tobacco. The original lithographs for the series were created by Knapp & Company, N.Y. This is the second time that Duke released the "Terrors of America" series. The cards of the first set (N88) are smaller than N136 cards.
