Entrance Pass to the Worlds Columbian Exposition. Good Until April 30, 1893. Virtually As New. 64 mm x 103 mm. Two-color printed form on cream card. Serial numbered 11077, in red. Named to "Mrs. Esther O. Putnam," on the "Exhibit" Account for "Dept. M." all filled in by hand, in ink. Engraved signature of Horace Tucker, the superintendent of the Department of Admissions and with the rubber-stamped signature of E.A. Felder, Assistant Superintendent, at left in purple. Bright and clean with only the most trivial evidence of handling. This pass allowed access only until April 30, the eve of the opening of the Exposition to the public. Again, likely another extremely rare form that could well be the nicest extant of its kind. This was for Frederick Ward Putnams wife. One of F.W. Putnams calling cards, with "Mrs. Putnam" penciled at the top is also included. (Total: 2 pieces)
