our entire stock, but it is a remarkably large amount to be thrown on the market at less
than market prices. Please remember that

purchase for this Sale was indeed a verv unusual f-.rans:ifi.lnn
one of the largest manufac uring furriers of New York, whose policy

tiating this purchase he said: "It really dovs seem foolish to make such reductions un
der present conditions, but my rule is to car -y no stock over, and I have decided not to
depart from that rule, but to sell these Fur while the styles are new and while the re
tail business is at its height." Added to thi ereat collection are many Furs from our
own splendid stock, ordered months ago, and now marked at far below today's regular
prices. b
