THE DEPARTMENT STORE SIGN SHOP.
Mr. Jukes writes as follows concerning department store sign shops:
“I will point out a few of the difficulties I have found, and the way they may be overcome. For instance, one morning I arrived at the store during the busy season and found, to my surprise, no less than six individuals (from cash boys up), each of whom possessed a scrap of paper, which they forthwith fluttered in my face. I will not attempt to write the orders, instructions, threats, etc., that I underwent. Suffice to say, that each one insisted on his signs being made immediately, and all had been instructed to wait for them.”
