Universal Ball, Keene, New Hampshire, March 5, 1852
A ticket or invitation for a "Universal Ball" held in Keene, New Hampshire, on March 5, 1852.
As listed on the ticket, musician S. K. Conant played both the violin and the "Kolquearougion," an instrument he invented. Although a newspaper article in 1859 called his invention the "Kolquearougion Bells," I haven't been able to uncover any additional information about it.

as to this piece of history, oh to know what that instrument was! bells on his fingers and toes perhaps? ha!
Alan Mays club has replied to raingirl clubCNN's Great Big Story, on February 12, 2016, used reproductions of my collection of acquaintance cards to present an amusing but unlikely reenactment entitled The 19th Century Tinder: Welcome to the Racy World of Escort Cards over on YouTube (don't miss my acknowledgement at the end of the video).
The upshot of this publicity is a recently published book of detachable acquaintance cards entitled May I See You Home? 19th-Century Pickups for 21st-Century Suitors. See my Flickr profile page for more details about the book.
