Series 4:Personal Business Records, 1869-1905
4 Folders
Box 3

This series includes Library of Congress copyright certificates for Mosler's pictures Awakening of Love, The Dancing Lesson, The Light of the Cross, and Sharing the Breakfast, in addition to several life insurance receipts and Sara Mosler's will. Of particular note is a detailed account book of Mosler's personal and professional income and expenses from 1869-1892. There is a gap in the accounting from the end of 1878 to October of 1886 when it resumes with a note written by Mosler explaining that he has found it a "great error not to mark down carefully the daily expenses as it serves two or more purposes-it answers as a 'diary'" and also serves as "something to prevent paying the same bill twice."
