We know it’s a lot to swallow in one gulp, but in this catalog, we’ve included almost 100 listings of mostly older items. All of them have been reduced in price, some by as much as 80%. The sale ends on December 15, 2024 so if you’d like to take advantage of some of these discounts, you’ll need to order before then.

Although most items are first-person, original-source Americana such as documents, correspondence, journals, photograph albums, and scrapbooks, you'll also find ephemera and postal history.
