Item description from seller

Collection of five original billheads printed in black ink on light beige paper. Each billhead also includes handwriting in black ink. Datelined May, June 21, July 19, August 4, and August 14, 1900 in Sacramento, California. The May billhead includes multiple dates in the rows below. 8 1/2" x 7" and 8 1/2" x 4 1/2." Billheads are very clean and intact overall except for light age toning, a few horizontal and vertical fold lines, slight wrinkling, a paper stub tipped in at right edge on back, a tiny split at bottom edge of May billhead, a few tiny pinholes at top of June and July billheads, and a small dampstain affecting a small portion of handwriting on August 4 billhead. Each billhead and the entire collection are Very Good. A collection of five original billheads from Wasserman, Kaufman & Company of Sacramento, California to Frank Kunsting of Franklin, California. The May billhead includes many line items with the description, "Mdse." The June and July billheads have twelve and nine line items, respectively. A sampling of the items Kunsting purchased in June and July are "Undershirts," "Pearl Buttons," "paper napkins," "3 Rolls crepe paper," "Corset waist," and "summer corset." There is one line item each on the August billheads. Kunsting bought "Muslin" on August 4 and "Calico" on August 14." The printed header on each billhead reads, "Bought of Wasserman, Kaufman & Co., Importers of Dry Goods, 610, 612, 614, 616 and 618 K Street; Agency for Butterick Patterns." "The Nonpareil" also printed at top of each billhead, perhaps referencing one of the company's specialties.
