Cincinnati: [ca. 1875]. Broadside, 11 x 8 inches. Slight worming at edges, minor wear. Contemporary ink stamp on lower corner. Very good. Item #457
Broadside advertising the services of George A. Knight, ticket agent for the Ohio & Mississippi Railway. “Bear in mind the fact, the Ohio & Mississippi is the only line that runs its entire trains through from Cincinnati to St. Louis with NO MIDNIGHT CHANGES!” The broadside bears the ink stamp advertisement of Henry H. Hannan, Land and Emigration Agent based in Swan Creek, Ohio. A nice, ephemeral piece. OCLC records three institutional copies, at the University of Missouri, the Hagley Library, and Southern Methodist University.
Price: $350.00
