The pictures show views of this Early 1900s Gardiner Maine Bicknell & Neal People's Clothiers Advertising Premium Booklet. Shown are the front and back covers, a few pages with writing, and a few of the black slate like pages for notes. The covers are in black with silver printing. The front cover pictures a dapper man with a suit, top hat, a cane, and smoking a cigar or cigarette. There is a loop on one side to hold a thin small pencil, but the pencil is long gone. The two covers read as follows: COMPLIMENTS OF BICKNELL & NEAL PEOPLE'S CLOTHIERS, GARDINER, ME. DOES A LARGE STOCK ATTRACT YOU? WE'VE GOT IT! DO REASONABLE LOW PRICES PLEASE YOU? WE NAME THEM! DO STRAIGHTFORWARD METHODS AND GUARANTEED TRANSACTIONS INTEREST YOU? THEN THIS IS YOUR PLACE AND WHEN THE NEED OF CLOTHING, HATS AND FURNISHING GOODS CALL ON BICKNELL & NEAL, GARDINER, ME.
