Another favorite area is ephemera, and another of the
article's footnotes describes a banknote printer's
advertising piece: "An advertising circular of the Jocelyn
engravers stated that the cost of engraving four notes on
copperplate was $250.00 and produced 6,000 good
impressions; the cost of engraving four notes on steel
was $500.00, producing 35,000 good impressions.
Printing cost $2.00 per hundred impressions. Advertising
circular of N. and S. Jocelyn, New York and New Haven,
2 May 1831, in The Jocelyn Family Papers, 1810-1835,
collected by Foster Wild Rice, Connecticut Historical
Society (CHS), Hartford."
