Standard block blotter of the period with turned handle and curved bottom. Well made of solid hardwood. Comes with period type blotter paper attached. An absolutely essential and common part of any desk, be it in the field or formal. Labeled for our documented signature CW era and ancestral stationer, S. Ringwalt of Boiling Springs, PA, near Gettysburg. (Note: blotter paper can be inexpensively replaced with watercolor paper from art suppliers - virtually the same item today. When originally developed the paper was made from cotton rag which is also still available if desired but, at higher prices. The product quickly morphed into any type of more absorbent paper and by the mid 19th c. was made with several different processes)
