This is a Jeffries drug store receipt from 1907. The letterhead says: Warrenton, VA., January 1st, 1907 / Mrs. L. V. Ramey / To JOSEPH A. JEFFRIES, Dr. / DEALER IN / Drugs, Medicines, Oils, Paints, Stationery, Books, Fancy Goods, / CONFECTIONERY, FRUITS, ETC. / All Time Bills Due Quarterly and Prompt Payment Required It looks like the items were bought in October, November & December. I presume that means a customer could keep receiving items and only pay for them at the end of the quarter. |
