* I am
selling these for a friend
... He knows little about them other than he got them at an estate auction long ago and is (1) retiring soon, (2) moving soon, and (3) wants to sell it.
I know little about them as well
; so I have taken lots of pics. What I can figure out--following an online search for such items that came up empty--follows.
*
Published by
WILSON-JONES LOOSE LEAF CO.
of
CHICAGO
and
NEW YORK
.
* Both have an
imprint/stamp
from a
QUINCY, IL
printing/office supply company.
*
Catalog
is
40
pages
in length and measures
4
x
9.25
inches
(a size suggesting it being meant to be carried around by salespeople in their front suit pocket for quick reference).
I think the imprint on the back is from a
QUINCY, IL
business.
*
Insert
measures just under
3.5
x just under
6.5
inches
.
* I am not certain of the "Early 1900s" date, but both pieces sure look as if from that time period. Further, a review of the history of the
Wilson-Jones Company
suggests a
1900-1915
timeframe for these items (see:
https://www.madeinchicagomuseum.com/single-post/wilson-jones/
).
* Please
see pics
for additional details. Let me know if you have any
questions
(or
insight
you would like to share).
