Wooden File Dividers 1846-1850
- Unbound
Unbound. Fine. Five wooden (probably cedar) file or account dividers for five consecutive years. Each is approximately 3.25" x 8". Each has the year and purpose neatly handwritten in ink at the top, as follows: "Bills Paid 1846," "Bills Paid 1847," "Bills Paid 1848," "Bills and Receipts 1849," and "Bills and Receipts 1850." Little ink stains on the back of one, otherwise fine condition. Likely from Pennsylvania or New Jersey (where we found them). An interesting insight into homemade 19th Century filing systems.
