Stake attention in this memory
An aged, yellowed telegram form from the "REPÚBLICA ARGENTINA TELEGRAFO DE LA NACIÓN" is displayed, showing signs of wear and creasing, along with two punch holes on the left edge. The telegram, dated October 19, 1936, at 2:10 PM, originated from Dean Funes and was addressed to Federico C. Muller at Florida 935, Buenos Aires. The message, sent by Fernando Fader, politely declines an "honorable designation" as a jury member in Rosario. Fader expresses regret for not being able to accept, citing a conflict with "preparations for an exhibition" in Montevideo. He thanks the recipient for the "distinction" and proposes to send some "fabrics within shortly." The form includes various fields for administrative details such as "N.° de Origen," "N.° de Palabras," "Hora de Origen," "Fecha de Origen," "Hora de Recepción," and "Fecha de Recepción," with some handwritten entries visible. A small print disclaimer at the bottom states that "El Telégrafo de la Nación no atiende reclamaciones por demoras de despachos producidas en otras líneas, ni por los que acepte en carácter 'Condicional'." The document provides a glimpse into historical communication practices in Argentina.
