Business in 1800 (and 1897)

November 24th, 2008 · No Comments

Found this little tidbit of an article from the New York Times published in 1897. According to the PDF of the original article, getting information to your clients was a far cry from our communication rich environment. Before the time of mail delivery, you had to rely on human delivery. There were no envelopes, no stamps, no postal boxes hanging in front of your house. To deliver a letter you were charged high rates and it would take several days for 'human delivery'.
