Again, I apologize for the poor photography. The Society of California Pioneers, which I visited last week, has a ton of great advertisements from the 19th century. These two are sewing ads. I am not sure what company the first is for, but the second is no doubt for Grover & Baker, a San Francisco Company. It's a little dense for an advertisement, no?
If you have any info about these ads, do share please.
From my recent trip to the Society of California Pioneers...
I do believe these J&P Coats spools would fit nicely into this spool cabinet by the same maker - see this picture I posted last week:
