Weather Proof Cloth and Hats by Thomas Fellows
An 18th century notice from Thomas Fellows announces Weather-Proof Cloth and Hats and a coating that repels rain from Woollen cloth. It claims the preparation improves cloth quality, prevents water penetration, and enhances handling. It invites merchants to have their cloth weather-proofed at his White Horse Yard shop in Drury Lane London and notes a seal with his inscription to deter counterfeiters. Also advertised is Kinsley’s Water-Groof cloth by the King’s Patent.

Epigram on a late noble gift and playful verse display
A fragmented verse set from London Evening Pott, Sept 16, mocking a noble gift and literary mischief. It parodies a reader’s letter, hints at book gifts and readers, and includes a fable style piece about Monkey and Cat with Grimalkin and Puga in a playful urn of petty courtly exchanges.
