Antebellum Life Insurance - Part II - 1866 Prospectus

Here's another post in my run-up to my column about life insurance in the United States in the antebellum and Civil War era...see Part I here.

This post includes scans of an 8-page pamphlet/prospectus from Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Company in my collection.

It includes several interesting items:

• Several pages of premium tables
• A list of contemporary competitors on the back cover

Check it out - several of thise companies are still in business today - they might even be the same company with which you have your own policy!

More items coming soon!

Enjoy!
