ANTHONY'S NONPAREIL SHUTTER

Marketed by E. & H.T. Anthony & Company 1891 - 1895

The name "Nonpareil" originates from the French meaning "without equal". This would not be the first use of the Nonpareil name, as E. & H.T. Anthony marketed the Nonpareil Plate in 1871, manufactured by John Dean & Company of Worcester, Massachusetts.
