This vintage advertising card features a colorful lithograph with the text "What Hoe!", and a young girl hoeing & saying “What Hoe!” an advertisement for Barrett Co.Contractors. The card is a great piece of collectible advertising memorabilia, measures 6.5” long, nearly 3.5” tall with an unknown date of creation. However, the phone number listed is only 4 numbers with no area code numbers. That would date it to before 1947 as the American Telephone Co. didn't come out with area code numbers until 1947. Artists signature is by the girl's right foot, very tiny, hard to see (see enlarged photo of). The multi-color design is eye-catching and sure to be a great addition to any collection. It comes from Tacoma, Washington.
The front of the card is in good condition with a minor black mark and large white mark on the card, but the back has black ink spots on it (possibly from an ink pen?-see enlarged photo of). It does not distract from the beauty of the front of the lithograph card. A real eye catching design.

The card is in a used condition, but still in good shape and suitable for display. It is a type of advertising known as a card, and would fit well in the Collectibles, Advertising, and Merchandise & Memorabilia categories. Overall, this is a unique and interesting item that any collector or fan of vintage advertising would appreciate.
