Butterick-Publisher
A great, world-wide trade-mark may in some
cases seem a handicap.
Buttericlc, for example.
With a consumption of 30,000 tons of paper
per annum and $196,000 for ink, with circulations
of magazines of more than 2,000,000 a month, still
most men when you say Butterick think of
patterns. t ,
Forty years on Regent Street, London;
twenty years in Paris ; with editions for years in
German, French, Spanish and Italian, Butterick
is really anN international publishing house.
While discerning advertisers spend some
$6,000,000 in Butterick publications a year to
reach women to most men the Butterick trade
mark stands as immutable as gold.
Even the wisest men sometimes miss what
every woman knows.
