Vol II pg. 133A The image displays a historical document, specifically a standard form of a straight bill of lading from the Northern Pacific Railway Company, revised on August 15, 1916. The document is designed for the transfer of goods via rail and includes sections for shipper information, agent numbers, consignee details, and a description of the articles being shipped. The form mentions "1 Curio Art L," indicating the type of item being transported. There are handwritten elements throughout, including signatures and other annotations. The document's purpose is outlined as a memorandum acknowledging the receipt and terms of shipping goods, with tariffs and conditions noted. A stamp from "YE OLDE CURIOSITY SHOP" is visible at the bottom left, and the form appears to be a historical artifact capturing logistics practices from the early 20th century.
