Recently acquired business records of Ephraim Baker (1836-1919) shed
light on the furniture making business in Virginia. Found amongst the
correspondence, accounts, circulars, and advertisements that make up the
records of Baker's general store, located in Mount Olive, is an 1871
Green & Brother catalog - an unusual to find furniture catalog complete
with annotated prices. For more check out today's blog entry.
