Hemp Trading Card

Hemp trading card made in 1900 by Chocolat Poulain, one of France’s favourite chocolate brands. This collectable card is part of a series called “Useful Plants”, and lists the industrial uses of the cannabis plant: “The wood of its stem, called hurds, is used for making matches. Its seeds, known as hempseed, provide by expression a drying oil used in painting and for the manufacture of black soap. Finally, the leaves of certain hemp species are used in the East for the manufacture of hashish.”

Many of the images on the Hash Marihuana & Hemp Museum website are available for reproduction. Please contact us for more information.
