CITY CLOTHING MART, No. 80, QUEEN STREET. .— . | i ii in . , .1 .■ .111 rr.inn—i - -i . j.. j i.. n.. -. . . . ■ " """" "' ' ' To the Public of Auckland, City, and Province. GENTLEMEN, * U * ~ x #J , . „ I have for the last two years devoted my time and energies to the study of your outward adornment and comfort, and to the most efficient and economical manner of compassing these objects with satisfaction to you, and some small benefit to myself. I have now to acknowledge the liberal support you have accorded to me, and at the same time to intimate that I have so far perfected arrangements for the manufacture of Clothing, and for the selection and purchase of goods, that in the particular department which I have made my special study I can defy competition in the colony. THE TAILORING DEPARTMENT Is replete with advantages. Having an experienced cutter and an efficient staff of working tailors, orders can be executed on short notice when required with rigorous punctuality, and the fit and workmanship in all cases guaranteed. The Stock of CLOTHS, TWEEDS, FANCY COATINGS, &c, comprises 572 Patterns, and affords a selection suited to all tastes and pockets ; while the scale of Profits is the lowest compatible with reason. THE READY-MADE CLOTHING DEPARTMENT Is supplied chiefly from my own Factory in High-street; and as all Goods there made-up are cut in the prevailing fashion, and the work personally superintended, I can guarantee superiority of style aud workmanship to that of the generality of Imported Slop Clothing. It is a rule of the Establishment that any articles purchased on the premises shal] be altered to fit free of cost; and where satisfaction cannot be given the money is returned without hesitation. To those requiring less expensive Goods for Rough Wear, or for Working Clothes, a Large Stock of Slop Clothing is always kept. THE UNDER CLOTHING DEPARTMENT Is carefully kept, and can supply every article of Under Dress required by man, of such Quality and Price as suit his means. TRAVELLING AND TOILET REQUISITES Are also kept in Stock as warranted by the requirements of the place. In short, every requisite for the Gentleman travelling, or the Gentleman at home, the Working Man, or the Youth, may be obtained at the CITY CLOTHING MART. I now submit for your consideration the following list of articles always kept in stock. —Yours faithfully S.A. M: TJ liS L CO O ]\r BE S 9 Proprietor. BROAD CLOTHS. SHIRTS. GLOVES.
