Description
Old shelf number Eph J4-12a(12). Verso gives information on sale to be held April 30th, but no year. Since the date is listed as a Saturday, the only possible years for the sale were 1887, 1892, 1898, and 1904. Using city directories for Los Angeles at the time, it was possible to discern that the only of these years when John C. Bell was at the address given (No. 17 Temple Block) was 1887.
