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.
