1950 SIGNED DRAGO AMUSEMENTS Letter/Letter Head/Cover Kokomo, Indiana/Wabash W@W

Description

I've purchased a HUGE collection of vintage fireworks ephemera that was associated with a Danville, Illinois area historical fireworks manufacturer/display company. They were in business since the early 1900's; coming from Italy and bringing their expertise to the U.S. They started out as the Illinois Fireworks Display Company; branched into the World Fireworks Display Company; and purchased and ran the Liberty Fireworks Company that originated in Franklin Park/Maywood, Illinois. There are letterheads/letters/correspondence from many places in the United States and around the world. These date back to the 1920's up into the 1970's. World Fireworks discontinued operations in the 1950's; Liberty Fireworks in the 1970's; and finally the Illinois Fireworks in the early 1990's. There are catalogs; letterheads; advertisements; some labels; and other ephemera from over the years. Just send an email to ask if there is a certain area; industry; or other specific interest that may be in the collection...otherwise, just keep watching my auctions for neat items from the collection.....
This particular auction is for
a vintage advertising letterhead and cover(mailing envelope) that has:
"Drago Amusements Fairs And Celebrations --- Paul Drago, Owner.....Kokomo, Ind."
on it. This was sent to the Liberty Fireworks Display Co. in Maywood, Illinois, before it was purchased by the Illinois Fireworks in Danville. Although the letter is not dated; the postmark on the cover is from Summitville, Indiana in 1950. These have
surface wear and blemishes; soiling/staining; creases/tears; staple wear; other blemishes and wear; etc.
