I am excited that The Exchange:  The Business History Conference Weblog included the Adverts 250 Project in its most recent issue of Over the Counter, a monthly roundup of projects, programs, and papers with a business history component, as well as other news of interest to the business history community.  This issue also included a link to “Lottery Mania in Colonial America” from the American Numismatic Society, which I mention because lotteries were frequently advertised in the colonial newspapers (though I have not yet included an advertisement for a lottery in this project).

The Business History Conference is “a tax-exempt, not-for-profit organization devoted to encouraging all aspects of research, writing, and teaching of business history and the environment in which business operates.”

Many thanks to The Exchange and the Business History Conference for “advertising” the Adverts 250 Project.
