1935 Commercial Travelers Insurance Mailer Baseball Catcher Advertising Utica NY

A striking piece of vintage Americana: this 1935 insurance mailer from Commercial Travelers Mutual Accident Association features an unused bifold application with bold red-and-black baseball catcher imagery and the period question "How are you protected in the game of life?" The complete set includes the original mailing envelope postmarked July 1, 1935 from Utica, New York, an anniversary letter from the Board of Directors, and a "Paid in Full" certificate—all in their original, unhandled condition. A fascinating artifact of early twentieth-century American business and advertising.
