The Jonathan D. Bulkley collection of illustrated billheads and letterheads contains about 36,000 billheads, letterheads, flyers, and other ephemera relating to commerce and industry in the United States from 1758 to 1952, with the bulk of the items dating from 1840 to 1910. While most of the items document products or services manufactured by American companies, countries such as Cuba, France, Great Britain, Germany, and Mexico are represented as well. Imagery and text on the materials pertain to the history of production, finance, consumerism, and advertising. Many of the items include graphic logos, decorative images of views of storefronts and factories, and detailed representations of the various products manufactured for sale. Typography on the materials also include visual motifs of varying text styles and printing techniques. The collection contains items that are both engraved, as well as lithographed. Some of the recurrent printers and lithographers of items in the collection include: Baldwin & Gleason Co.; Geo. D. Barnard & Co.; Britton & Rey; J.H.
