Early 20th Century Honolulu Ad Fragments and Slogans
A compact set of fragmented ads and notices from Honolulu includes references to a photographer and a missionary, a shoeshop, a climate commentary on alcohol use, a beer brand Panst Minwarken, and several local businesses. It mentions Popular House rooms at 154 Fort Street from $1 weekly, Union barber shop near the Art Gallery, and Sterling the painter offering rock painting with coal tar and cement in roof prep—an eclectic snapshot of local commerce and life.
