Note prices listed for a prepared sale of ladies and misses spring coats in serge, gaberdine, wool mixtures and shepherd checks. Items show prices from $1.09 to $45.00 with assorted colors and sizes, urging customers not to miss the sale and highlighting value during the event.
An advertisement lists a full line of fancy fabrics and trimmings including organdy, voile, stripes, florals, and laces. It promotes wide 40 inch and 46 inch materials, low regular prices, and discounts on untrimmed hats and handkerchiefs with vivid color ranges and patterns.
