This is a letter and cover, dated 11 September 1901, from C. G. Hare at Lincoln in Benton County, Missouri, to the Harding Signery in Wurtsboro, New York.  The letter concerns Hare’s desire to place “large signs ... on bill boards, vacant houses, etc.”

 

C. G. Hare was a “General Agent” for real estate, collections, and abstracting.  In this letter he asks the Harding Signery for “lists, samples, etc.” of large signs.  Both his letterhead and the cover have promotional advertisements on the reverse sides for Benton County and its seat, War­saw, Missouri.  It promises fruit-culture “without frost, blight or mildew.”  The ad also promotes mining for lead, zinc, coal, granite, and marble.  Interested persons are encouraged to contact Hare in Lincoln or the Commercial Club in Warsaw.

 

A Clayton C. Hare (1876-1944) is buried in the Lincoln Cemetery.
