B59-701 EPHEMERA. George F. Bauer Cooperage. The March 2008 issue of the Chronicle included an article by the late Carl Bopp, as part of Carl's "Made in Philada" series, which explored, with his typical thoroughness, the history of the Bauer cooperage, founded in 1907. This centerpiece of this lot is a promotional 1907 calendar, die-cut out of heavy paper (19-1/2" by 13-1/2"), which was featured on the cover of the Chronicle, and the colors of which are as vibrant as the day it was printed (one hand is slightly damaged). Also included are copies of the Chronicle issue, two cooperage rods, imprinted with the name of the Bauer cooperage, a folder of original documents, including vintage invoices and receipts, and old photographs from Carl's research. A treasure trove for anyone interested in Philadelphia history. From the collection of Carl Bopp. Fine 1000-2000
