I found a file filled with bills from the late 1800’s and early 1900’s and they are gorgeous! Many of them have beautiful engravings on them, which either depict the goods they are offering or the building where they’re located. Some of the buildings are still standing, but most were lost in the Baltimore Fire in 1904.
Here are a few of the ones that I like the most.
People with Flags!
Animals & Birds
Buildings
Ships
Household goods
Multi-Colored Inks
Fancy Fonts & Great Typesetting
Don’t you wish the bills you received looked this great?
