different boxed advertisements for an array of products including Cascade Beer, Nicholls Malt Ales, Liberty Sharebrokers, Lion Tea, 5 O'Clock Tea, Criterion Hotel, Chemist, Goldsmiths, Photographers, Clothing, Fruit and Wool Brokers etc, some very
minor reinforcement with archival tape otherwise remarkably fine for these large (420x300mm opened-out) and impressive issues, unused. About as fine as they come. Exceptional thematic content. The previous item, this and the next four lots are the
first examples we have offered for many years. An example on pink paper, with some soiling & the flap re-attached, sold at our auction of 29.11.2008 for $610.
