New York, ca. 1875.   Measures appx. 22.5 by 13.5.   The text printed in red in a variety of display and ornamental typefaces, surrounded by a border printed in black depicting numerous medals, pins, etc., each numbered (presumably keyed to a price list or descriptive catalogue, which is not present).     Folded several times, with a few closed tears at the folds archivally repaired on the verso, and with a tiny bit of loss to the letters “o” and “n” in “Fulton” at the top, otherwise in fine condition.   A handsome and unusual display piece.
