Condizione: Good. Company not identified. Includes: (1) "Karachi Office Force, Retirement of Mr. Duncan, June 1, 1928". (About 80 people including 6 wives and 7 children, in an outdoor setting, with trees in the background) Approx. 26.5 x 35.5 cm. Two vertical creases. Minor foxing and chipping. Mounted on a piece of light-colored card stock, approx. 30 x 45cm.; and (2) Untitled and undated group of 26 men, seated on steps and boxes in front of a large corrugated metal building. A big "1" and a "No Smoking" sign visible on the side of the building. 24 x 28.5cm. Mounted on green bordered card from which the top 3cm. has been roughly cut. Light foxing on the card which doesn't affect the photo. Printed on a bottom corner of the card: M. Y. Asahi, Rangoon. Both photos clear with excellent detail. All of the men in the Rangoon photo and 39 of the people in the Karachi photo have numbers inked on their images which refer to notes inked in the margins identifying them by (in most cases) name, ethnicity, and position in the company. For instance, Mr. Duncan is identified as a "Scotch accountant" and another man as a "Eurasian Head Clerk". Americans are identified by state, leading us suspect that this was an American-owned business. The same man, identified R. P. Pollard, has the honor of being No. 1 in both photos, making it likely that the photos were annotated by him. He is identified as from VT in one of the margins. There appears to be no other overlap of people between the two photos. The boxes, on which some of the men are sitting in the Burma photo, have "Devoe's Imperial Brilliant Oil Patent Cans" printed on the sides. …

Broadside, 10.5x34.5 cm (4 1/8 x 13 1/2 inches). Broadside advertising the sale of the unsold portion of the the Lodi Orchard Company's holdings in the "Home Ranch" of Hon. R. C. Sargent on April 16, 1892. Ross C. Sargent (1821-1903), a New Hampshire-born California Forty-niner, was a prominent pioneer resident of San Joaquin County. Sargent and his brothers were major players in reclamation of swamp and overflowed lands in the San Joaquin Delta under legislation known as the Arkansas Act. At the time of his death in 1903, R. C. Sargent was the largest landowner in San Joaquin County and left the largest estate ever probated in the county. See Alan M. Paterson, Rand F. Herbert and Stephen R. Wee, HISTORICAL EVALUATION OF THE DELTA WATERWAYS: FINAL REPORT, prepared for the State Lands Commission, December 1978. "In 1849, in company with his two brothers J. L. and J. P. Sargent, he started overland for California, arriving on October 13, 1849. For a year and a half they engaged in mining, merchandising and teaming in Placerville, but in 1851 came to San Joaquin county, pre-empted land and started farming. From that time he began increasing his holdings by purchase and by reclamation of the rich overflowed land so that he became one of the largest landholders in the county, his holdings reaching in the neighborhood of twenty-five thousand acres. Mr. Sargent used up-to-date methods in farming and has been notably successful. He invested heavily in different manufacturing enterprises in the county and also in city property in Stockton. As the years have passed, these holdings have grown enormously in value, and at the time of his death, June 15, 1903, he left an extremely valuable estate" (Irvine, HISTORY OF THE NEW CALIFORNIA: ITS RESOURCES AND PEOPLE, VOLUME I [1905]). The millionaire's death led to scandal regarding a young maiden lady who lived in the octogenarian's household, but that's another story . In the winter of 1892 R. C. Sargent's 17,000 acre "Home Ranch" was subdivided and sold to farmers and fruit raisers, the Lodi Orchard Company acquiring 2000 acres (San Francisco Call, March 4, 1892 [volume 71, number 94]). Auction announcements similar to, but not the same, as this handbill appeared in issues of the San Francisco Call and the Morning Call in April 1892. Folded in half; creased, mild stains, a good copy. (#167630).…

Illustrated advertising broadside, 29 x 11 ¼ inches, three of the illustrations signed in the engraving "Krehbiel Co., Cin O.," "Cohen Co., Cin," and "Ware Bros., PA." Among the offerings are some of the earliest Horse Drawn Oil and Gasoline Tank Wagons, as well as sled type "Runner Attachments" which could turn any wagon or carriage into a sleigh quickly and easily. The engravings of the Oil and Gasoline Tank Wagons resemble the finest carriages and farm wagons of the period with surrey-type canopies and quite delicate, wooden spoke wheels. The illustrated wagons include one with advertising on the tank for "The Atlantic Refining Co." of Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, and "R.T. Cummins Modern Oil Delivery Company." Wyeth-McCully-Davis Co. not in Romaine. Apparently not recorded on OCLC. Folded, some soiling on verso, but a very good example of a visually appealing advertising broadside. …
