This unique set includes three telegraph company passes from the 1920s, each allowing the bearer certain privileges. The first pass, dated 1921, is from the Western Union Telegraph Company. The second pass, dated 1922, and the third, valid until 1923, are both from the Postal Telegraph Cable Company.

These passes include the note "telegram signed by bearer may be accepted collect," indicating that telegrams signed by the passholder could be sent with charges billed to the recipient, a common business practice at the time. These historical pieces are in good condition, showing typical signs of age such as minor wear and discoloration, adding to their vintage appeal. They are an excellent addition for collectors of telecommunication memorabilia or those interested in the history of telegraphy.
