This is a vintage advertisement featuring a stylized illustration of a cow participating in a parade. The cow is predominantly purple and white, with a pink face and blue eyes. It's adorned with a decorative headdress and a patterned blanket. The cow is positioned as if in motion, with its legs and tail suggesting movement. In the center of the illustration is a banner with text that reads: "Only Heliotrope Cow in the World" and "Ink Beasts Parade". Below this, it emphasizes "Queen City Inks" and identifies "The Queen City Printing Ink Co.". The company's addresses are listed: 1025 SOUTH STREET, KANSAS CITY, 345 DEARBORN STREET, CHICAGO, and 734 SANSOM STREET, PHILADELPHIA. The illustration has a distinct Art Deco style, with geometric patterns and bold colors. The bottom of the image includes printing details like "H.D. BOOK, 40", "HELIOTROPE, 2934", and "JACQUEMINOT, 636". The paper appears to be slightly aged, adding to the vintage aesthetic. The overall design is eye-catching and playful, likely intended to promote the company's inks through a memorable and whimsical image.
