Nine pages from the 1946 to 1947 Oak Bay Hardware store ledger, pertaining mostly to the excise taxes applied to timepieces, ranging from wrist watches to large clocks. The first page has a notation which reads "List of goods sold on what (sic) 25% taxes paid". Also on this page, and on subsequent pages is the list describing the item sold, the price and the tax amount owed. The appropriate amount of taxes due are then paid with a variety of 1c to $1.00 face value 3-leaf Federal excise tax stamps that are affixed adjacent to the hand-written tax totals. This is an unusual format for the payment of these taxes but at the same time a nicely broken down listing of the products and the excise taxes paid in these early post-war years. Estimate =
