Including Photo of Reward of Merit Recipient


Rosa Parker Family


Hallsport, NY

1860s
 


For offer, an early ORIGINAL ephemera collection. Vintage, Old, antique, Original - NOT a Reproduction - Guaranteed !! I kept this collection together from an estate in Upstate NY. 1860s, a couple could be a bit earlier. Nice graphics in the rewards of merit. Two sets are matching, one showing steam train locomotive - railroad, work, etc. Some with lithograph color, some hand colored. Two are dated 1867. Presented to Rosa Parker and her siblings, James, Helen, and Elmer Parker. Several of them have Rosa written on the front or the back. Photo Has the name of Elmer Parker on back, but I believe it was given TO him from ROSA, as the front shows a girl. There is also an envelope with the name Miss Melissa Silvernail on it, of Hallsport, NY - perhaps the teacher? In good to very good condition. Please see photos for details. If you collect American history, 19th century children, school, Americana,  etc., this is one you will not see again. A nice piece for your paper / ephemera collection.  Perhaps some genealogy research information as well. Combine shipping on multiple bid wins! 800
