CLARK COUNTY. "#17 3/29/13 Lining Track Near Ryans" unused sepia-tone Azo (triangles up) real photo postcard showing about 25 men lining up railroad tracks that had moved because of the earlier flood, mostly using leverage & muscle power, toned back, oxidation consistent with age. $17.50 o(c)d

NB: There is no town named Ryans or Ryan's in Clark County, but a history of the county recounts that a tannery was established there by a man named Ryan, that had been abandoned before 1908. That is our best surmise as to how the location was referred to by the railroad employees taking the pictures & captioning the negatives.

CLARK COUNTY. "Ryans #13 3/25/13" unused sepia-tone Cyko real photo postcard showing railroad track inspection for damage after the flood, from a group we purchased showing such efforts in Clark County -- Enon, Snyderville, Medway, West Springfield, etc. Unused sepia-tone Cyko real photo postcard with good edges & a lightly toned back  Notice that this photo has unusually precise dating in the caption. Most likely at least one set was produced for railroad management & another set for the insurance company; captioning so they could discuss the images & their claims over the phone.  [They say a picture is worth a thousand words.] We offer what we have secure in the belief that none of these were commercially produced. $10.00 o(c)d

Interesting: gives detailed prices, sizes, product list, etc. Illustration is their registered trademark. The address itself is interesting: Fowler's was in Brooke County & had a post office until 1901. So this is one of the last pieces of mail that it handled. The date is interesting politically, too!

P. Owsianikow: Bojarian lady" signed art on a postcard with the quoted advertising on back, mailed at Astrachan with a 2-kopek stamp to Mr. A. E. Jenkins in Cleveland Ohio, a little cancel ink on front, minor edge wear. Cancel is indistinct for the date, but mentions of the Boehmke Company can be found in the trade literature from 1910 - 1918. Astrachan is seen with a more modern spelling Astrakhan, in the Volga delta of the Caspian sea--prime caviar country. It is landlocked there so it would have been dependent on rail travel to reach the European offices mentioned on back. That fixes the time more precisely as pre-World War I, because rail traffic on the continent was disrupted throughout that war. The Boyars were an upper-crust Russian class that dealt with a tsar or two in their days; this lady's finery is a testament to her wealth.
