rif. 20200834San Francisco CA: El Rico Land Company 11-Dec-19. General wear and soiling. Letter folds. Minor penciling on envelope. A letter to a Mr. Peter Goettsch of Nicolaus CA regarding payment of his dividends in the El Rico Land Company. Originally enclosed with this letter was check for $400. The letter is on a specialized letterhead meant for exactly this type of correspondence. The majority of the letter is preprinted with blank sections in order to fill in the date check number and amount. The letter is signed by the company's secretary A. W. Sutton. In the background of the letter is a blue screened image from a photograph depicting a single Caterpillar Tractor pulling four large trailers behind it filled with what appears to be sacks of grain. Single page letter with corresponding envelope. Measures 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" letter 6" x 3 1/2" envelope. In the Caterpillar Times Vol. 35 No. 11 pg. 5 a promotional magazine of the Caterpillar Tractor Company available on Google Books named Caterpillar Times Volumes 35-37 in November 1915 there is what appears to be another image but at a different angle of this same engraving printed in the issue. The caption there reads "The biggest load ever pulled into El Rico Calif. Outfit of the El Rico Land Company. Total load - 55 tons 1300 pounds." There is not much information on the El Rico Land Company but they appear to have been an investment company/ land colonization company based in San Francisco which purchased land in and around the San Fernando Valley specially El Rico CA in order to encourage people to move there and farm it.

1720rif. 12337London: Sold by John Bowles Print & Map-Seller over against Stocks Market c.1720. Image: 345 by 465mm 13.5 by 18.25 inches. Sheet: 420 by 550mm 16.5 by 21.75 inches. Engraved print. A view of the equestrian statue of Charles II donated by Sir Robert Vyner. Sir Robert Vyner 1631-88 was a goldsmith and banker. He made the crown and orb for Charles II's coronation in 1661 after the original Crown Jewels had been lost while his father Charles I was fleeing the country. Vyner was made goldsmith to the King and knighted as a reward and became Lord Mayor of London in 1674. In 1668 St Mary Woolchurch was demolished to make way for the construction of a new market rebuilt as a fruit and vegetable market. The years after Vyner became Mayor he erected the statue in the centre. The statue had in fact been bought from Europe as an unfinished statue of John Sobieski King of Poland trampling on a Turk. Vyner had the statue altered so that Sobieski's head was replaced by Charles's and the Turk turned into Oliver Cromwell. The figure trampled under the horse's hooves is dressed in flowing Eastern robes. The statue was moved to make way for the construction of Mansion House. BM 18801113.3609.
