EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and historically significant print captures the essence of Sir Henry Morgan, a legendary figure from the 17th century. Published in 1888 as part of the Pirates of the Spanish Main series by Allen and Ginter Cigarettes, this colour lithograph showcases Morgan's daring exploits during his capture of Panama. Sir Henry Morgan, born in Wales in 1635, was not only a pirate but also a privateer and sailor. Known for his audacious raids on Spanish settlements in the Caribbean, he became one of the most successful pirates of his time. This cigarette card pays homage to his remarkable achievements. The illustration depicts Morgan with an air of authority and heroism befitting his reputation. Dressed in traditional pirate attire, he stands tall against a backdrop that hints at both adventure and danger. The vivid colours bring life to this historic moment, transporting viewers back to an era when piracy reigned supreme. Beyond being an infamous pirate captain, Sir Henry Morgan was also a landowner in Jamaica later in life. His legacy is deeply intertwined with Jamaican history as well as tales of piracy on the high seas. This photograph print serves as both a collector's item and a testament to Sir Henry Morgan's enduring legend within popular culture. It offers us glimpses into an era filled with swashbuckling adventures while reminding us of the allure surrounding these notorious figures from history.
