Bargain Week in Linen and Silks at Athens Stores
A lengthy ad lists prices and discounts on linen suitings, lawn, organdies, Swiss and dotted fabrics, cotton dress goods, linens, silks, and white goods. It promotes 10c to 29c fabrics, 1.00 to 2.00 gloves, umbrellas, hats, art squares, curtains, towels, lace, hosiery, fans, hall runners, verandah shades, and a wide range of household items with strong emphasis on value and liquidation pricing. The piece markets mass discounts across textiles, notions, and home furnishings with stock clearances at one-third off and price cuts lingering through items like quilts, linens, and apparel.
