Palm & Fetchteler dated envelope

Post by Mike Jackson »

Image

I bought this piece on eBay the other day. I was dated 1894 postmarked in New York. For Robare and other interested collectors of the Palm Transfer books, this piece might help confirm dates Fetchteler was still part of the operation.

It's a cool little piece of history!
Mike

PS: This image is 400 pixels wide and 225 pixels tall. If you post photos, please try to shrink them down to no more than 400 pixels in width. For
most photos, I think they will do the job nicely.

This is a 450 pixel wide image I used on the old BB. Seems to fit fine, too.

There was quite a bit of discussion about the Palm Letter Co. on the old board. Click below if you want to read more about the subject:

Nice catalogue, are the images very large?

I have a different issue with a lot of images, but on the average quite small.

Just to show the power of the new Forum, this is the very last post from page 14. Now that I post the numbers for the size, this post will be front and center. In the old Forum, the post would have stayed on page 14 and the odds are thin many people would ever see it. Cool, eh? (for Bernhardt)

The book is 11" wide adn 13.5" tall.
