A receipt book for Southern Pacific Railroad shipping of agricultural products from California throughout the United States; the receipt book was used mainly by agent J. P. Onstott at the Yuba City and Marysville, California, stations. The book is made up of 3-part, tri-color, duplicate shipping receipts; only the first portion is completed with shipments from 1900 September to 1908 October. The volume lists shipments of raisins, grapes, and currants to San Francisco and Sacramento, California; Omaha, Nebraska; Denver, Colorado; Chicago, Illinois; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Portland, Oregon; and Seattle, Washington. The receipt book also provides shipping prices during the time when the Southern Pacific Railroad dictated shipping rates because of its monopoly of railroad shipping in California. The volume has a rough weave, stained, cloth binding, with "So. Pacific R. R. Co." stamped in black on the front cover; the name "J. P. Onstott / Yuba City, Ca." is written in pencil. The spine is damaged with loss at the top and bottom, but the pages are still tightly bound; the inside front cover has the name "A. Simi / Roma winery" written in pencil.
