NEW ROYAL'
PORCELAIN AND FLINT GLASS SHOW-ROOJli
55 CASTLE STREET, ABERDEEN. 55
HpiIE Nobility, Gentry, and Public of Aberdeen and it
JL cinity, are most respectfully informed that the Subscribers Intel \
opened, for public inspection, their New and most Magnificent SHOW-
ROOMS, erected in connexion with their Establishment in CASTLE
STREET — the length of which, in all, measure upwards of 100 feet.
They have also much pleasure in intimating to the Public, that their
New Premises are filled with a most elegant Stock of CHINA, Ironstone
CHINA, Rich-cut CRYSTAL, and EARTHENWARE, all of which
have been lately purchased under their personal selection in the Staf-
fordshire Potteries and Glass-manufacturing districts in England. They
can, therefore, with the utmost confidence, recommend their present
Stock to the favourable notice of their numerous Friends and Cus-
tomers.
H. F. & Co. have long adopted the plan of marking every article in
plain figures, at the lowest Cash prices. Formerly, from want of suffi-
cient extent of Premises, they were prevented from classifying their
Goods in the way they wished ; but now, from the vast accommodation
which they possess, every Customer may have every quality and price
of the articles they want before them at once ; and are enabled, by a
comparison, to discover the articles most suited either to their taste or
price, by this mode of having only one price, and that price marked in.'
plain figures on the article ; thus a world of trouble is saved, and those
who are not acquainted with the value of the articles have equal advan-
tages with the best judges.
The extent and arrangement of the Show-Rooms afford every facilit ■-
for examining and selecting articles, all of which are marked at such
prices as would be ruinous to those whose business is more limited in
extent.
