There is an interesting bit in the Illustrated New York description: "any of the goods named in this catalogue" So somewhere there is an Overbaugh catalog sitting in a draw. A very small point. I found some later listing for Overbaugh. The address had changed to 300 Broadway.

I am trying to get a "hit" with the census records for C.E. I am wondering what became of him.
