Chase & Sanborn.
This is a trade catalogue issued in 1889 by the Boston coffee and tea firm Chase and Sanborn, printed in New York, aimed at grocers and buyers of coffee and tea. Its pictures show coffee plantations with workers among palms, rows of coffee bushes on hillsides, drying yards where beans are spread and bagged, and a tea-processing room where workers sort and pack leaves into lined chests, useful to a designer wanting period commercial scenes of agricultural labour and trade.
