Thanks to Dr. 240z for this interesting marketing letter. 

 

One of the first restorations.

An ounce of Gold:

$20.66 in 1928

$1200.76 today.

58.12 times as much

 

A $5.00 fender is $290.60

A $1.00 dollar tune up is $58.12

4 new pistons and ring at $7.00 would be $406.84...

 

Things haven't really changed to much.

"Vibrator Points"?

Postmark of 1928.  Great read - thanks for sharing.

And a 1 cent stamp.

Those were the days.

 

Thanks also.

Postage on postcards were  1 cent from May of 1907 up to the late 40's, except for a short time during WW1.

 

Nice find, Blue.
