end of an era--
Western Union -STOP- Ends Telegram Service


A history--

"The American public in its readiness to accept that which is novel, smart, modern, accepts the telegram as socially correct--something to be expected when one has friends who are up with the times. Invitations to social functions, greetings on an anniversary, best wishes of the season--all are delivered by Western Union on specially designed blanks which add a high note of distinction."
