Full title - W. and J. Hughes, Wholesale slate merchants.

A covering letter from W. and J. Hughes Wholesale Slate Merchants, Port Dinorwic (dated 17th December 1906), to accompany their slate price list. The letter is not attached to the price list, but it is believed that it relates to their price list dated 1st January 1907 (also deposited by the donor). The letter is printed on cream paper. The donor’s family were timber merchants in Taunton, Somerset. They supplied timber and slate to local builders and merchants, and as a result acquired a collection of slate price lists.
