Manuscripts
The collection contains 62 financial volumes and one envelope of ephemera for the Foy Brothers saddler and harness business in Los Angeles. Many of the volumes have items in them including correspondence, receipts, invoices, handwritten notes, etc. The ephemera includes receipts, invoices, tax information and receipts, a business license, and a catalog for "S. C. Foy ... Manufacturer and Dealer In ... Harness, Saddles, Collars, Whips, Lap Robes, Dusters and Nets, Etc. Los Angeles, Cal." These financial volumes and the ephemera give insight into the Foy Brothers' business in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in both Los Angeles and San Francisco, California. Their business with Abel Stearns, Pio Pico, and Phineas Banning are represented in several of these financial volumes.
