_Announcement of overcoats_

THE BARBOUR CLOTHING CO.
2249 WABASH AVENUE
CHICAGO

October 19, 1921.

Mr. Charles Reid,
Winnetka, Ill.

My dear Sir:

In a couple of weeks you are going to think a good deal about
your overcoat. Why not start thinking now?

We are offering this year the most complete line of overcoats
that we have ever been able to buy. We have found that we
could buy absolutely first-class coats at absolutely fair
prices. We are selling them on the basis on which we bought
them, and we bought a lot because we think the values will
sell them.

The prices are surprisingly low. They range from $20 to $70.
At the lowest price we are selling a coat which, if you saw it
on the back of a friend, you would think cost at least $50.
The highest priced coat is as good as money can buy. If you
expected to spend $50 for a coat, you may find that you can
get what you want for $20 or $25, or you may find that you
will want an even better coat than you had expected to buy.

We think that it would be worth your while to look at this
stock.

Very truly yours,
The Barbour Clothing Co.
