Up for sale is an incredibly rare, 100% complete vintage 1926 Edition Catalogue of The Perry Pictures Company (Malden, Mass.). This is an untouched, archive-grade time capsule containing the entire original mail-order sales ecosystem exactly as distributed a century ago.
WHAT MAKES THIS KIT UNIQUE:
• Intact Factory-Bound Order Sheets: Retains the original internal order sheet dated September 1, 1926. It still features the factory paper warning slip stating: \"Unbend these two binding wires and release these sheets.\" A century later, it remains perfectly undisturbed.
• Pristine 1925 Post Office Insert: Includes an unused, unwritten Form No. 6001 Application for Domestic Money Order (Edition April, 1925). The reverse preserves the entire historic structural fee index (5-cent to 22-cent processing structures).
• Natural Color Specimen Plate: Houses the stunning full-page color print of a Catbird at its nest. These color plates were almost universally cut out or harvested for scrapbooks by teachers and students, making its presence here exceptional.
• Full Specimen Suite: Complete 64-page structure with clean, crisp sepia prints including \"Calling the Ferryman\" by Ridgway Knight and \"Angel Heads\" by Reynolds.
