1886-05: Museum and May Festival Souvenir

The Baldwin Company and Henry Farny joined forces in 1886 to create a souvenir the celebrated the Opening of the Cincinnati Art Museum and the Seventh May Festival. The brochure is twelve pages, though blank on a couple. The letter on the cover has a very Farny-familiar style, with the exaggerated san-serif lettering and the dots separating the words.

This particular copy can be found in the Cincinnati Library Museum Archives, Farny folders MSS-559, box 5 or box 6.
