This advertisement from 1850-1900 is for Lazarus & Morris' brand of eye glasses.  The text specifies that the spectacles are sold by "W. H. Freeman, Watchmaker and Jeweler" in Goldsboro, North Carolina.  The advertisement uses several different fonts of varying sizes, along with one photo of the spectacles in use.  The style of the poster is typographically focused to match advertising trends of the 1900s
