Abstract

Description

Empty envelopes found together were addressed to residents of Oaklands, including Rathmell Wilson, Helen Elizabeth Wilson (Lizzie), Annie M. Wilson, and the Misses Wilson. Most envelopes are addressed to Miss Alice Wilson, which perhaps suggests that the collection arrangement was hers. Stamps, removed from other family letters, were found collected in an envelope, and various newspaper articles about stamp collecting were also found together. Includes labels and ribbons from original bundles.
