Cleveland Ohio 1905 Union Paper Twine Company Receipt + Envelope Cover

This receipt dates to 1905 and records a payment transaction for the Union Paper Twine Company in Cleveland, documenting everyday commercial activity in the early twentieth-century paper and packaging trade.

Cleveland supported a dense network of paper, twine, and packaging firms that supplied manufacturers, merchants, and agricultural shippers across the Midwest. Companies producing and distributing twine and paper goods occupied an essential position in shipping and storage systems, and their printed forms reflect the standardized bookkeeping practices that developed alongside expanding industrial logistics.

The receipt is made out to A. A. White and includes handwritten dollar amounts and date entries, with ruled lines and formal script headings typical of period business stationery. The layout emphasizes a clear “Received from” statement with space for amount and purpose, and the lower portion carries the company name in printed form. The accompanying envelope shows matching period postal markings and ties the document to its original correspondence context without requiring inference about its later handling.
