About This Item
Folio (16 1/4" x 6 3/4") paper wrappers, owner's name on top cover, 24 pp. Wrappers with some wear, some minor extremity chips, tears and corner folds, a little staining, normal aging and browning; otherwise very good. This appears to be an account book for a general store owned by Francis B. Gardner. The location appears to be in New York, but sometimes the writing looks like New Port. However, the writing is generally very legible, with every page filled with text of transactions. A very broad range of products are sold, including many articles of clothing, such as silk hats, vests, boots, and even silver watches. Furniture, linens, and other household items are listed, along with sugar, beef, fruits and vegetables.
