XMAS MONEY
FORYOU
Search Your Attic for Fortunes
in Old Confederate Envelopes
Among the old letters of many South
ern families are hundreds of very rare
stamps and envelopes. Many have been
found and sold for small fortunes.
Single envelopes have been sold for
as high as §2,000, and many have
brought upwards of §100 each. It
sounds “fishy,” but it’s true. They are
valuable because they are rare. And
they are rare, not because there are
only a few, but simply because most
of them have remained stored away and
forgotten, in old trunks and closets.
Make a thorough search through your
attic or store room for these old war
letters. Fortunes in rare stamps or
franked envelopes have been found in
old trunks which no one ever dreamed
contained anything of value. Keep the
letters if you wish, but send the en
velopes to Mr. Harold C. Brooks, Box
223, Marshall, Michigan, and he will
immediately write you, stating their
value. In sending them to him you are
not obliged to sell unless his offer meets
with your approval. Anything not pur
chased he will return in good order.
Mr. Brooks, who is mayor of his city,
is a private collector and has paid
thousands of dollars for old envelopes.
Although the rare issues are especially
desired he also buys many of the com
moner kinds. Many people in this way
are getting Christmas money with very
little trouble and no expense.
The First National Bank of Marshall, j
Mich., writes: “Mr. Brooks has been
in business here for twenty years. \ou
will make no mistake when you recom
mend him to your readers as worthy of
the fullest confidence, both financially
and personally.”
Mr. Brooks states that there are so
many different stamps which are similar
in appearance he cannot quote values
from written descriptions, but must see
the envelopes. There are, for example,
ten different Confederate government
stamps bearing the portrait of Jefferson
Davis, and many local stamps or
stamped envelopes are very much the
same in appearance. The same is true
of U. S. issues, the heads of Washing
ton or Franklin being used on different
stamps. Mr. Brooks docs not buy loose
stamps, stamp collections, coins or Con
federate money. Stamps should not be
cut from the envelopes and no dates
written on. He is fully acquainted with
all issues even though the postmark
may show no year date. Those espe
cially wanted are Confederate issues,
but he als» buys U. S., Canadian, j
Hawaiian, and cdrtain foreign stamps |
provided they are on the original en
velopes and mailed not later than 1865.
If envelopes are sent in a bunch
they should be carefully packed in a
cardboard box to protect them from
damage while in the mails. If you have
reason to believe your envelopes are of
special value send them by registered
or insured mail. If you have no old
letters written during or before the
Civil War, show this notice to your
friends—especially those whose fami
lies have lived in the same home for
several generations. Many old families,
old banks and law' firms still have
stored away hundreds of letters, wait
ing to be burned or sold for large
sums. Before destroying such envelopes
or folded letters investigate their value.
Mr. Brooks’ address is as follows:
’ HAROLD C. BROOKS,
V Box 223, Marshall, Mich.
What a world of loving, kindly thoughts go into the writing of that name
on the Christmas label. I he ho'Iv and the bright ribbon too, express the Measure
you fed in giving. But what a great deal more it will mean if the gift is one that
will be a constant reminder for many vears.
No gift, no matter how exquisite, can quite equal the gilt of JEWELRY
it enhances the Deauty of all womanhood—its subtle charm has won the adoration
of the world for countless ages.
y/
And those who love to give beautiful things will find here a gleaming, glit
tering, exquisite array that will suggest a Christmas gift for every name on your
list.
