$48.95
measures 8.5 x 5.5 Up for sale is a scarce, authentic 1901 handwritten billhead and receipt from "E. CONRAD, Dr. Poultry Farm and Creamery," based out of P.O. Hopbottom, Susquehanna County, PA.
Datelined from Foster, Pa. on June 18th, 1901, this bill is made out to a Mr. Thos H. Jordan. It features a handwritten ledger tracking butter purchases from May 25 to June 15, 1901, totaling a balance of $30.70. The bottom is boldly signed "Rec'd payment, E. Conrad" in fountain pen ink.
Why this piece is special:- Localized Rarity: Hop Bottom and Foster are incredibly small historic communities in rural Pennsylvania. Surviving business documents from small family farms in this region are exceptionally difficult to find.- Unique Advertising Cross-Over: The top left features a rare specialized print line: "Imperial Peking Ducks a Specialty," making this highly desirable for antique poultry and farm advertising collectors.
Condition:Good vintage condition for paper of this age. Features natural minor toning, light edge wear, and standard spindle holes at the top from original office filing. Excellent typography and crisp, readable handwriting. Perfect for framing or local historical archiving. Please see photos for exact condition details.
Shipping: Ships safely flat in an archival sleeve with rigid backing cardboard to prevent bending.
