1892613N.p. but likely Pennsylvania 1892. Good. 28pp. Folio. Original black half sheep and marbled boards. Spine and corners heavily worn boards worn. Several leaves cut away with later French funeral notices pasted in on stubs. Ledger recording transactions for several companies and individuals extracting oil in Pennsylvania from 1889 to 1892. The ledger records the name of the company listing the date and then barrels of crude and refined oil "sound" and "broke." Named parties involved in the extraction include James Stewart Aetna Oil Co. Miles Stitt Crew Levick Co. Jos. Kelly & Co. James Harding and others. Several have street addresses listed below their names which would allow for firmer identification with some research. Notations are occasionally in French and taken together with the funeral notices pasted in at the front of the volume we surmise that the owner of the ledger may have been Francois Poulard of Philadelphia to whom one of the notices is addressed. unknown books
