Author Description

Excerpt from Rhode Island Historical Society Collections, Vol. 29: January, 1936 Although this specimen of domestic promotion literature is indeed primitive, when compared with the identical type of literature produced in London at about the same period, yet it would seem as though a useful purpose is being served by presenting it here, as historians of Rhode Island and of American advertising may perhaps find in it some thing of interest.
