What it is
A colour lithograph by Johann Georg van Caspel, printed by Steendrukkerij v/h Amand in Amsterdam in 1897: a woman and a girl stand at a shop counter buying a tin of Flick's cocoa.
Why it matters
Flick sold the same cocoa to English and German buyers and kept van Caspel on both sheets; this is the German-language one.
What to notice
Irises frame the scene, and the lettering is Art Nouveau down to the misplaced umlaut in Höllandischer.
Dutch cocoa, sold in German, drawn in Amsterdam.
