Antique "A Queer Letter Carrier" Book (1900)
Origin: Pennsylvania, USA
A book published in 1900 titled A Queer Letter Carrier, using the word “queer” long before it meant what it does today. Seen now, it reads like an accidental piece of gay history and feels incredibly satisfying to own. A reclamation of a word that’s been around a lot longer than people think.
Each vintage treasure is hand selected by Tanner & Fletcher, & sometimes by Tanner’s mom, Adele.

Our collections celebrate the passage of time; as such, items may feature unique characteristics like gentle wear, patina, historical mending, or distinct flaws. While we do our best to disclose and document every detail, the evaluation of vintage condition is ultimately subjective.
