This tattered bit of the 1882 Hiram Sibley & Co. catalog is all that I can find. It was offered on eBay some time ago and I downloaded the images. I assumed I could find a better copy in one of the archives, but took it as a reminder to get it. Good thing I did! There is no 1882 Hiram Sibley catalog I can find.
The first page, after the beet, is of great interest to me as it is sharing with the readers the new look of agriculture, one of produce being shipped from great distances on the increasingly efficient train system. Wish we had the verso!
