Correspondence and Ephemera
Manuscripts
The collection is divided into two series, Correspondence (arranged in alphabetical order, by author) and Ephemera. The Correspondence consists mainly of letters between investors and employees of the Charles S. Sprague Co. from the mid-1910s regarding their investments in mining stocks, including the Goldfield Merger. The letters indicate that many of the mining operations were not yielding profits. The Ephemera includes receipts and blank buy order forms.
