Description
An "In Memoriam" card (a) and envelope (b) for Eli Evarts, December 1889. The two item have heavy black borders with the interior of the card noting that Evarts died on Christmas Day and giving his age in years, months and days and including a four-line poem. The envelope does not have an address on it. The card has some moderate soiling and rubbing, while the envelope is foxed, soiled, rubbed and creased, so the overall condition is fair.
