I have a couple Funsten catalogs that I cannot locate a date, does anyone know how to determine the date? I would really like to know the date of this one. This catalog states Funsten first served fur shippers in 1881 and another section makes the statement it has served customers for over 20 years. As you can see on the front cover they were awarded the grand price World's Fair in 1904. That narrows it down some but does not give me the date.




I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

I know it was between 1920 and 1929 thanks to PaulB.
