Description

Newspaper ad. Ad at center portrays an illustration of an arm-less rocking chair. The text of the ad reads, "SHAKERS' / WEB-SEATED / CHAIRS / Manufactured and sold by the / Society at Mount Lebanon, / N. Y. Every chair of our make / bears a gold transfer trade- / mark, and none others are gen- / uine. Send for our Illustrated / Catalogue and Price-List. / Address R. M. WAGAN, / Mount Lebanon, N. Y." This ad is seen through a cut-out in a rectangular piece of paper with a brown floral print. A second cut-out above it is wide and short and displays the title from the newspaper in which the ad was printed: "HARPER'S WEEKLY. MAY 29, 1875". Both pieces are taped to the back of the larger paper sheet, which is secured to a piece of red cardboard.
