Amazing piece of Maine maritime history — original 1884 Merchants’ Marine Insurance Company of Bangor open policy ledger and related documents. This $50,000 marine insurance policy was used for ship merchants operating between Portland and Bangor.
Includes detailed entries showing insured cargo, ports of origin and destination, insurance rates, and policy amounts. Two original printed policy documents are enclosed, both signed by the secretary and president of the Merchants’ Marine Insurance Company.
The ledger is in fair but solid condition with typical wear for its age. The cloth cover shows the most wear and fading, but the interior pages remain clean with light staining and dust along the binding. Most of the ledger pages are unused.
***Disclaimer on old/vintage/antique books/paper and the like:
Some wear from age, use and storage which may or may not include some, none or all of the following: writing/personalized notes on inside covers and title pages(or notes on pages in the case of songbooks and sheet Music), small tears, creasing, etc.... all typical Vintage and antique book wear.
Opposite side may or may not have related or unrelated texts or prints which I have deemed less interesting than the one presented. Your opinion may differ
See top of description for any outstanding flaws.
