IT PAYS TO BUY FURS HERE AND NOW!
Few people realize the seriousness of the Fur shortage. Many think
that it is mere "trade-talk." But nothing could be further from the truth. The shortage
is serious
Dealers are unable to meet the ordinary demands. The wholesale Fur
markets are practically "cleaned out." The average retailor haa ceased to consider the ques
tion of prices. He's got to figure how to get his Furs at any price. Manufactured Furs are
going to the highest bidders at unheard-of prices.
The Above Is the Condition in the Fur Trade Today!
We have in this store $600,000.00 worth of Fine, Dependable Furs.
It is the largest and finest stock in the Eastern States. And that we have such marvelous
stocks is no ensy turn of fortune. We paid cash for our skins when the market dropped. We
manufactured direct. We eliminated the middleman fiom every transaction that transpires
in the manufacture of Furs. We ictail direct to you and now you can choose from these
stocks and save from 20 to 45 per cent!
The Moral Being: "It Pays to Buy Furs Here and Now!
A Small Deposit Will Reserve Your Purchase
These Pictured Fur Coats, All Extra Value!
