Typed business correspondence document mentioning Firestone Tire & Rubber Co.

The item is a typewritten business document on off-white or cream-colored paper, featuring dark typewriter ink text. The physical object appears to be a vintage paper document showing typical yellowing, aging, and slight creasing consistent with early-to-mid 20th-century office stationery. The visible text includes a typed letter format with headings referencing 'Mr. J. G. Robertson, Treas., Firestone Tire & Rubber Co., Akron, Ohio,' and discusses land purchases, parcels, acreage, and prices paid to owners such as Samuel B Haynes, John W. Welch, and others, with handwritten annotations and numerical markings in ink visible near the itemized list. The document quality and typeface are consistent with historical business correspondence from the early 1900s, though the paper has not been chemically tested or authenticated. The owner provides context suggesting this belongs to a 'Firestone tire and rubber archive 1900s,' but this user-supplied attribution remains unverified. The identification in the title rests entirely on the legible company name and header printed directly on the page.

Based on what I can see in the provided image, this document is a typewritten business correspondence featuring a header referencing Mr. J. G. Robertson of the Firestone Tire & Rubber Co., along with itemized lists of land purchases and handwritten annotations. The owner identifies this as part of a 'Firestone tire and rubber archive 1900s.' I must note that this attribution remains an unverified user-supplied claim, and I cannot verify the exact age, paper composition, or historical context from a photograph alone. A physical inspection would be necessary to evaluate the paper stock, typewriter ribbon impressions, and ink composition. Assuming the document dates to the early 20th century as suggested by the typography and general aging, single-page historical business letters associated with major American corporations typically trade in the $75 to $150 range among collectors of corporate archives and ephemera. Demand for automotive history ephemera is steady, though values heavily depend on the specific significance of the figures and transactions mentioned. If physical examination reveals this piece to be a later reproduction, modern replica, or facsimile copy rather than period-appropriate stationery, the market value would drop significantly to under $20. To support higher valuations or confirm absolute period authenticity, one would need detailed provenance documentation, archival context linking it directly to known Firestone records, and in-person expert authentication.
