Catalogue of Goods from Farrar, Follett & Co. Importers of Tin Plate, Sheet Iron and Metals...

Flexible royal blue cloth 16mo, 84pp. Blind and gilt embossed cover, a.e.g. Printed by Geo. C. Rand & Avery in red and blue inks, illustrated only with an engraved frontis of the building. Pages 7 to 80 alternate with product listings and memoranda pages, "in which the manufacturer or trader can note his wants from time to time." Tidemark to upper corner, stray soil to rear wrap, Very Good+.

The high production value exudes sophistication and suggests a quality product, without illustrating the actual goods. Run by Daniel Farrar, Devter H. Follett and Eustace C. Fitz, nothing of the firm is recorded in OCLC, but they're mentioned in Edison's letters as a supplier of galvanized telegraph wire. This catalog features a much broader range of offerings, from sad irons, pea skimmers, candle moulds, shears. Not in Romaine.
