Most have company letterhead and a few have more elaborate artwork. A few are completely handwritten. I tried to show a good representation of invoices. There are multiple invoices from the same companies as you would expect.
A good portion of the total are for three companies (approx. 63% by weight):
W.W. Small Company - Wholesale and Retail Dealers in Flour, Grain, Feed, Groceries and Provisions … Hardware and Agricultural Tools, Glass , Paints and Oils, Lime , Salt, Cement, Lumber and Country Produce, Wheels and Carriage Stock of All Kinds. Farmington Maine
