Victorian chromolithograph trade card titled "A Corn-et Dance," featuring a whimsical anthropomorphic figure dressed as an ear of corn — husks as a skirt, silk tassels, playing a cornet while dancing in a cornfield. A visual pun on "cornet." Published by J. H. Bufford Sons, Boston, copyright 1887. The reverse carries advertising for S. B. Thing & Co., sole agents for "Double Thick Ball and Protection Toe Rubber Boots," at 328–330 River Street, Troy, NY.
