Look at this picture of
Varsity Fifty Five
YOU get a good idea of the smart style weivc
put into the clothes. No wonder young men
give these designs their unqualified approval;
you'll find variations in lapels, pockets and buttons.
Ask the merchant who sells our clothes to show yc(u a suit at $25 to $40.
The label in the coat is a small thing to look for, a big thing to find.
