Business stationery (cover) used by WEST INDIA GARDENS, a nursery specializing in sub-tropical fruit trees in Altadena (California, USA), addressed to C. [Charles] B. [Betts] WAITE (1861 – 1927), American landscape photographer and publisher of postcards. The gum stamp on the cover served as a confirmation of receipt of the letter. Such a long time between sending the letter and this confirmation was due to the long absence of the addressee resulting of his journey.
