Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Collection of two original billheads printed in black ink on light beige paper and one original business letter with company signature ("Mebius & Co.") handwritten in black ink. Each billhead also includes handwriting in black ink and a small black-and-white illustration at top. Billheads datelined July 5 and 9, 1900 in Sacramento, California. Letter datelined August 31, 1887 in Sacramento. Billheads: 8 1/4" x 4 3/4." Letter: 7 3/4" x 10." Billheads are very clean and intact overall except for light age toning, a few vertical fold lines, slight wrinkling, and a paper stub tipped in at right edge on back. Letter is intact overall but has light age toning, a few fold lines (perhaps original), two small holes at top (affecting "M" and "Co." in "Mebius & Co." header), and some soiling on right edge from front. Most, if not all, of the handwriting on letter can still be read. Each billhead is Very Good. The letter is Good. The collection as a whole is Very Good. This collection includes two original billheads from Mebius & Drescher of Sacramento, California to Frank Kunsting of Franklin, California and one original letter from the company's predecessor, Mebius & Company, to the American Salt Company of San Francisco. The billheads show Kunsting bought five line items in total among which are "2 tins Durand Oil, "Olive [Oil]," "Wheatine," and "Pedro Tobo. [Tobacco?]." One billhead includes an inscription that items were reported broken on a previous shipment. The printed header on each billhead reads, "Bought of Mebius & Drescher, Importers & Wholesale Grocers. Wholesale Dealers in Tobacco, Cigars & Liquors; Exporters of California Hops." The letter to the American Salt Co. is brief and reads, in part, "Gentlemen, Please ship to us by [steamer?], [numerical specifications and abbreviations] Salt; Why have you not answered our last letter [?; last word partially cut off]; Yours truly, Mebius & Co." An inscription at bottom may indicate American Salt Co. did eventually answer on September 7. The printed header at the top of the letter reads, "Mebius & Co., Importers and Wholesale Grocers. Exporters of California Hops.".…
