Vintage Trade Catalogs
Why trade catalogs? Along with period photography, the trade catalog is the most accurate factual history of commerce, industrial development and social interaction. Most vintage and antique trade catalogs are wholesale, or B2B. Some were produced for the consumer, in particular the 19th century consumer of retail goods from manufacturers and retail companies located in far distant cities.
Herewith are some of the trade catalogs I've collected over the decades along with a live canned search for reference use Canned Vintage Trade Catalog search
