Be Your

Own Model

•/A picture can't tell you "whether the fabric is real wool, whether the coat is roomy and comfortable, or whether the clothes will look well on you.

Come to the Clothcraft Store and see "4130" Blue Serge Special and other Clothcraft suits and overcoats, for yourself. They're all guaranteed pure wool, and it won't take a minute to slip into a coat that's just right for your age, height and chest measure.

Why these particular clothes? Well, because we've looked over everything that sells between ten and twenty-two dollars, and we can't offer you as good value for your money in anything but Clothcraft.

Clothcraft stands for better workmanship, better designing, money saved and put back into fabrics and linings— clothes that will last as well as they fit. Come in and see us.
