For sale is a two sided, four page antique handwritten ledger page from 1865-66. This manuscript account book has many period Civil War entries from 1861-1866. I believe this to be from Pennsylvania but there’s no indication exactly where this is from.
These entries were written by a blacksmith and provide a fascinating glimpse into the daily business of a 19th century tradesman. Many of these pages list metal work done and their prices which was often for repairs to all types of metal items and horse shoeing. Many names of customers are listed with the names sometimes repeating throughout the accounts ledger. The pages are in good condition for its age and are sure to be a valuable addition to any collection of historical ephemera about daily life.

Perfect to frame, scan; use in art, scrapbooks.
