Major & Knapp was a famous printing company with close ties to the prominent nineteenth-century photographer, Napoleon Sarony. Sarony first partnered with Henry Major (Sarony & Major), then later, Joseph F. Knapp (Sarony, Major & Knapp). Over the years, Henry's brother, Richard Major, joined the company, as well as Joseph's son, Joseph P. Knapp. The company changed its name multiple times. Major & Knapp was located at 56 Park Place from about 1874-1884. Trade cards are antique business cards that first became popular during the late seventeenth century in Paris and Lyon, France and London, England. Trade cards were often given by business owners and proprietors to patrons and customers as a way to promote their businesses. Prior to the use of street addresses, trade cards had maps so clients could locate the associated business. Many of these cards also incorporated elaborate designs, illustrations, and other decorative features. Trade cards became popular in the United States during the nineteenth century in the period after the Civil War. The late nineteenth century also saw the advent of trade card collecting as a hobby. While they are no longer in use, trade cards influenced the formation of trading cards and were the predecessors of modern-day business cards.
