The letter is signed by Ira S. Agress. The bottom of the letterhead reads: INDIAN NUTS SQUASH SEEDS PUMPKIN SEEDS SUNFLOWER SEEDS The box is unused and flat. On both sides it pictures a Native American with headress and reads: INDIAN BRAND INDIAN NUTS PACKED BY AGRESS NUT & SEED CO. BROOKLYN, N.Y. NET WT. 3/4 OZ. Neither the letter or the box are dated but they are believed to be from the 1940's. The letter measures 8-1/2" x 11" and is in very good condition with folds from being mailed. The letter is also discolored under the attached box from the ink on the box being in contact with it all these years. |
