Holiday Greetings from E. R. Barry, the Hanover Street Confectioner, Manchester, N.H.

Holiday Greetings from E. R. Barry, the Hanover Street Confectioner, Manchester, N.H.
"Holiday Greetings of E. R. Barry, the Hanover St. Confectioner. Bufford."

Although this advertising trade card likely dates to the 1880s or 1890s, E. R. Barry continued in business into the twentieth century, as evidenced by the text of an advertisement in The Manchester [New Hampshire] Directory, 1908 (Boston: Sampson and Murdock, 1907): "E. R. Barry Co., confectioners, caterers, and bakers, ice cream, etc. Dinner served from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at 35 cents. Odd Fellows' Block, 81 and 89 Hanover Street, Manchester, N.H."
