This is very real. One supposes that Lovecraft is about madness, and you may want to clone this or photoshop it for your gaming activities.
For Chrispy, it's about the historical context. Though this is 1880, it relates to moving Winfield Lovecraft from Chicago to Providence. Likely Whipple paid the transport.
From the Seller: from AJ Quinn for taking Mrs. Rourke from New London, CT
to the Insane Hospital at Providence, Rhode Island (probably Butler Hospital) and transportation involved in the trip.
Dated September 1, 1880.
8 x 5 1/2
Payment info on back...bill paid by City of New London.
