Description

MI. Red, wind engine, center, B. S. Williams portrait, left. Red $1000 underprint. A spectacular piece of advertising that looks like a $1000 bond. It abounds in clever little catch phrases like "ILL BLOWS THE WIND THAT PROFITS NOBODY," "TOLL YOUR OWN GRIST." Only the second one seen by this cataloger. A not too distracting stain, right, but otherwise EF. Rubber stamp on back from L. A. Rose, Gen. Salesman, 88 So, Market St. Boston. (John E. Herzog Collection)
