Miss Ostrich Duster, 1896




Because this piece of billhead listed Ostrich Dusters as one of the line items, I decided that I would produce another Ostrich Duster piece, and this time their destination is C. W. Rank & Company in Virginia City, Montana.


I mentioned in the narrative at the time that I had another piece of billhead that I was going to use to portray a lady sitting on an Ostrich. I LOST track of that piece of paper, only to come across it again a little over a month ago. I was happy to find it, but the fact that I lost it has driven me to come up with a better means of keeping track of all the fabulous paper I've gathered in the past three years. It's amazing I haven't 'lost' more of it.

I know I haven't been posting lately, and it isn't that I've been idle. I've more projects in the works for those of you that follow.
