The collection contains catalogs and brochures published by the Roy Brothers, Inc., a manufacturer of croquet set located in East Barnet, Vermont. A few of the catalogs list the New York office and sales room at Riemann-Seabrey Company, Inc., 1107 Broadway (at 24th Street) in New York City. Unfortunately, most catalogs and other materials lack dates. The catalogs typically show individual croquet sets of various configurations, mostly in a black and white format, but a few are in full color. Also included in the collection are two rule books for the game of croquet, one published by Roy Brothers, the other by Wendell P. Roy. Other business items include pamphlets on butter stamps and cattle stanchions, as well as samples of company letterhead (Folder 2). There are several photos of the factory and the site on the Passumpsic River and two large photos from inside featuring workers (Folder 3). An undocumented timeline from around 1927 is included, as well as a poem written about some of the employees and their duties on the production line (Folder 4). A few photos of Ellen Paddleford Roy are included, along with a handwritten letter describing the flood damage in 1927 she wrote to her son (Folder 5).
