An Exhibition and
Sale of
Old -Fashioned
New England
Hooked Rugs
Some of Them
Antiques
This is ono of tho largest
collections ovor brought to this
part of tho country. The old
families of New England,
where the hooked rugs wore
mado, cling jealously to such
heirlooms, and tho collection
found hero today represents
tho ransacking of a thousand
or more atticB on tho "North
Shore," and the careful selec
tion of tho finest specimens.
Old-time folks prized their
hooked rugs. They did not
know that in 1921 pcoplo
would "rave" ovc their
quaint designs and striking
yet dexterous color combina
tions; but they not only cher
ished thorn by placing them
on tho sacred floors of the
dusk-onshrouded "best" room,
but the more rigid of tho
housowives kept them "wrong
sido up, with care," to pre
serve their surfaco quickly
reversing them when com
pany arrived at tho door.
Even the antiques in tho
collection some going back
fifty years, others much
longor display scarcely a
trace of wear In thoir firm,
marvelous texture, nor nro
the colors faded "to hurt
any."
Many are courageously nnd
successfully brilliant in thoir
color combinations. Others
have nlmost tho mellow shad
ings found in fine Persian
' vugs. Both moderns nnd an
tiques are all hand-manufactured,
of course.
Thoy aro among tho most
delightful rugs procurnblo to
"go with" Colonial furniture.
Sixes aro in great varioty,
going from the tiny rug,
1x2.7 feet, to 0x6 feot, and
prices are still more varied,
ranging from $12 to $800.

Because of the Wanamaker
Furniture Sales
These Sales have had such a tremendous bearing upon the furniture indus
try of the country. They have been of tremendous benefit, both to the furni
ture business and to the homes of the people, because they have proven them
selves the best and safest and most satisfactory connecting links between
the two.
And all the time they have moved steadily in one direction
forward towards better qualities and improved styles, adaptations and
reproductions of the recognized classic models.
forward towards sound, healthy, properly seasoned woods.
forward towards woodsmithing of the workmanly kind that only skilled
mechanics know how to turn out and how to appreciate.
forward through all the avenues leading to stability of interior construc
tion strong cordage, standard seat-springs and enough of them, clean,
sound fillings quality real and warrantable in every part and process
and detail.
