After Hours

Why bookstores need a shop cat.
      A trade card dating from the late 19th century according to Chuck Whiting who first posted this on bibliophemera. Whiting noted that this card was printed by Mayer Merkel & Ottman Lithographers in New York. It takes a good ephemera sleuth to recall their business card was archived over at Sheaff Ephemera. Nice work Whiting!
