MAY.
Two unused SSSS real photo postcards showing front & side views of a
gasoline-powered White Motor Company railbus (number 3 of 3) received by the
Hawaii Consolidated Railway (its logo conspicuously on the side) for
passenger traffic (tourist & local commuter) near its company shops in
Waiakea. The gentleman on the left is Richard W. Filler, HCR Manager. On the
right is Ezra Amos May, HCR brake expert who later became yardmaster. By the
newness of the vehicle, and by the real photo type, we can date the view to
circa 1924-1925. Under magnification we can see that the motorman /
ticket-taker's entry from the left side was more narrow than the entry for
passengers on the right. Obviously each postcard is one-of-a-kind: no
captioning, no photographer attribution & no publisher attribution. One of
the 8 corners has trivial wear; back paper starting to brown evenly with
age. We have not seen their likes elsewhere. Railbus real photos are rare
for any railroad, anytime (these are early) & anywhere. They were meant to
provide economical passenger service at a times & places where passenger
traffic was declining. These belong together in a museum. $165.00 either or $320.00 gets
them both. h(h)r(h)gg

Addressed to W. W. Gavitt's Medical Company in Topeka Kansas. Backstamped
Neosho Mo. JUN 29, and Topeka Kansas June 30th, company receiving mark July
1 lightly at bottom of front edge. Rambling note in sometimes hard-to-read

company's stationery which he received sometime after May 15 1901. Further
docketing on cover 'Wants agency' & 'When I come down I will tell you how to
answer this'. Accompanied by another handwritten note on two pieces of paper
written by McGee [cover not in the correspondence we received] in which he
discloses his Aroma location, and lashes out state legislation recently
passed. using political slang that is difficult to understand now. The form
letter is a fascinating revelation into how this company recruited agents to
sell its drugs, rather than sell through druggists. $20.00 for the cover,
