| Abstract:
|
The Friedberg collection largely includes business cards dating from about 1982 to
2017. There are also a substantial number of trade cards and business cards dating
from circa late 1800s through the early decades of the twentieth century. These cards
cover a wide number of businesses, non-profits, governmental bodies, and educational
institutions. The subject matter ranges widely and includes, among many others, restaurants,
artists, galleries, antiques, jewelry, books, and clothing. New York City organizations
are a significant component of the collection, but the geographic scope is much broader
and includes both other parts of the United States and several international areas,
perhaps especially western Europe and Asia.
