This is one of three trade cards in this record. The front of the card showcases a depiction of Argentinian currency and a native person from Argentina. The imagery reflects a common practice in the 19th century of using exotic or foreign themes in advertisements, although such depictions may now be considered racially insensitive. Below the illustration, the address 201 E. Water St. is clearly visible. The back of the card features a full advertisement for a "Souvenir of Our Spring Opening."
This manuscript journal, written by William Nestell between 1816 and 1819, details two voyages: one to San Sebastian, Spain, and Bordeaux, France in 1816; and a second to Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1819. The journal provides vivid descriptions of the places visited, insightful commentary on local customs and politics, and a personal account of Nestell's experiences as a sailor. Notably, the journal includes a firsthand account of a violent incident involving a Jewish vendor in Buenos Aires. The journal is bound in contemporary full leather and contains additional pages of poetry.
