The Herald announces a country weekly subscription price of one dollar yearly and offers a three page wall chart as a free premium to all subscribers, old or new, as a best value. The chart is presented as uniquely valuable and priced to attract broader circulation.
The ad sells a wall chart and the Herald for one year at 1.25, featuring Panama Canal scenes portraits of U S presidents and color facsimiles of world flags and coats of arms. Includes three 28x36 inch sheets, wall hanging eyelets, and maps covering world and state interests plus town indices and railroad listings. Also shows population figures for major cities through 1880 1890 and 1900.
The description touts a new wall chart replacing old two sided maps with a single sheet you can lift to view any part. Back and front data are equally accessible, making information easy to consult without turning sheets. It claims to be unmatched and unique among engravings.
A detailed advertisement extols a new Mercator colored world map fronting the page with an enamel surface, extra durability, and ample geographic data. It highlights time differences, national flags, rulers portraits, congressional districts, and extensive county and township details, claiming usefulness for offices and homes and noting a $1 value versus typical $5 maps.
