They greeted her with the pollceman'a

I There never was such a speedy response to a new season's overcoat styles as
that already on at Perry's, for there never was such an aggregation of styles
and models in Fall and Winter Overcoats since Adam delved and Eve span
as we are spreading before the men of Philadelphia!
i To begin with, our designers caught the inspiration of the long lines of
trenches. Over there, they 'combined wisdom with taste to get service and com
fort without sacrificing military distinction. Over here, we took a leaf out of
their book and put some of the same snap, smartness and serviceability into our
civilian clothes.
J At Perry's, we have added a few touches of our own here and there novel
belt treatments, new lapel and cuff interpretations, artistic shoulder tailoring,
increased individuality in waist, hip and skirt lines, and often have presented
the same general idea with little differences that can be recognized only when
the coats are placed side by each !
Here are Some of the Styles and Prices
CJ New Raglan Overcoats as slick in the shoulders as a greyhound, single
breasters and double-breasters, loose straight bodies, or furnished with a belt
that you can pull home with an extra hitch, if you want snugness at the waist
line. $25, $30, $35, $40, $45, $50, $55, $60.
If Trench Overcoats, both single-breasted and double-breasted, all around
belts, some of them with buckles, some with one button, some with two but
tons, inverted pleat in the vent that throws out the skirt with a military flare
from the hips. $22.50, $25, $30, $35, $40, $45, $50, $60.
If Kimono-sleeve Overcoats, with velvet collars or with cloth collars, both single-breasted
and double-breasted $20, $22.50, $25, $30, $35, $40.
J Big, long, roomy, double-breasted Auto Ulsters with regular outside pockets
in skirt and two muff pockets in breast that make for the luxury of comfort
in your car, or facing a blizzard. $35, $40, $50, $60, $65.
fr Box-Back Overcoats with the fullness of body that some men like $18, and
$20 for single-breasted models; $25, $30, $35, $40, $4 and $50 for either single
or double-breasted models.
CJ Paddock Overcoats as smooth and shapely as a glove from collar to hem
double-breasters,0 $25 and $30.
q Conservative Overcoats with velvet collar or with cloth collar, as clean cut
as a whistle in their distinction and style $20, $22.50, $25, $30, $35, $38 S40
$50, $55, $60. ' '
t i
CJ Made in a variety and choice of fabrics from which
every man's taste can be satisfied. . '.
