This collection contains a general ledger, which provides an overview of the company’s orders from 1930 to 1945. Another ledger details the company’s expenses with a record of cash receipts from 1931-1946. The remaining two ledgers contain a list of the company’s cash disbursements between 1932 and 1937.
This collection provides an overview of the financial recordkeeping of a small Philadelphia business in the early 20th century.
