The sale rages on with crowds gathering in the city center as Rainbow Store promotes steep prices. Workers respond to the call while the firm proclaims honest dealing and no deception in business.
Fragmentary text describes items like gloves hosiery and underwear with unclear actions. Mentions selling and inventory in a New Mesas area and references to a store and a dolla something. No clear event or outcome.
The store touts lightning-fast stock moves with a Silk Sale and a broad Shoes Day promotion. It promises durable waterproof and dress shoes at prices $1 to $3 below any local competitor, suggesting a strong guaranteed return value and a long running sale through August 5th midnight.
The advertisement touts 10 yards calico for 10 cents and 10 spools of machine thread for 10 cents with every $5 purchase. It boasts the store’s low prices in dry goods and claims to underprice mail order houses and offer large sugar loads.
