Scope and Content

Two wedding invitation comprised of one connected pages printed in black ink on cream cardstock. On the first page the invitation announces "Mr. Stanley McKittrick / announces the marriage / of his sister / Nellie Mae / to / Mr. John E. Agnew / on Saturday, December the fifteenth, / nineteen hundred and twenty-eight, / Clarksburg, Ontario / At Home / John St., Barrie, Ont." The second, third and fourth pages are duplicates of the second invitation "Mr. George Vamplew / announces the marriage of / his eldest daughter / Alice Irene / to / Mr. Errol C. Hooey / on Tuesday, July the twenty-third, / nineteen hundred and twenty-nine, / Heathcote, Ontario." The invitation's on the first and third pages are printed one way on the cardstock and the invitation's on the second and fourth pages are printed the opposite way. Perhaps this, along with the multiple ink fingerprints on each page, indicates a practice print run?
