Copyright, 1879.
R. H. WADLEIGH.
My recent publication on Head-Gear, Antique and Modern, will be delivered to all our customers. Should there be any who do not receive a copy, they will do me a favor by making application at the store where they will be supplied. I take great pleasure in presenting the only work exclusively devoted to this subject ever published, trusting a perusal of its pages will be at least interesting, if not instructive. I have used every effort to make it a correct description of styles, beginning with Egypt in the days of the Pharaohs (dating back nearly six thousand years) and ending with modern Paris, giving some twenty pages of beautifully executed illustrations, and thirty pages of descriptive essays and quotations from ancient and modern writers.
We solicit continuance of your patronage this coming season, and feel confident that with a rich and varied assortment of millinery goods and perfect artists we shall be able to sustain our motto “CORRECT STYLES.”
Respectfully yours,
R. H. Wadleigh.
