Artifact Overview
Writing with a quill, metal nib or fountain pen could be messy. Ink could smear or smudge with the slightest touch. In America by the late 1800s absorbent paper blotters became the preferred method to soak up wet ink. Companies produced small inexpensive blotters as advertisements and giveaways well into the twentieth century.

Dogs guard, guide, hunt and herd, but they also entertain, inspire and offer comfort. In exchange for their pets' loyalty, owners provide room, board, and affection. Owners convey love and respect for their working dogs in personal ways, through portraits and photographs. And businesses capitalize on public affection for dogs and puppies by featuring them in advertisements and showcasing them on consumable products from tableware to trinkets.
