Wm. Ewig Co. Letterhead

Image

Letterhead of the Wm. Ewig Company, an insurance company in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, with full-color depictions of a scene with three traffic accidents involving a pedestrian pinned down by a streetcar, a head-on collision between two automobiles, and a pedestrian struck by an automobile; and another scene of a blazing fire with billowing smoke clouds being fought by a hook and ladder company and other fire fighters racing to the rescue. A spray of water separates the two scenes.
