Recognizing the value of this, and knowing its perishable nature if recorded only in a newspaper, the publishers have corrected certain errors in what has heretofore appeared in print, have made many additions, and by printing and circulating it in book form among their friends and customers they wish to commemorate the cen tenmial anniversary Of the existence of their business.As the late timothy K. Earle contributed so much to bring the card-clothing Industry to its present condition in this country, the publishers deem it only fitting that his portrait and a Slight memoir of his life Should appear in these pages.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
