AD IV "Old Bleach" Linens Towels Huckabacks Diapers Trade "Old Bleach" Mark goods are kept in stock by all first-class Drapers. PURE GRASS-BLEACHED LINENS. Linen bleached on the grass will wear many times as long as chemically bleached linen, and in addition possesses the soft lustrous appearance and strength which chemical bleaching destroys. Grass bleaching was the Old-fashioned Bleach, and linens made a century ago are in perfect preservation at the present moment—proof that the vitality of the flax is fully retained by grass bleaching. "Old Bleach" are the only genuine grass-bleached linens, and possess to the full the soft lustrous appearance and strength natural to flax. When buying, therefore, insist upon seeing the Trade Mark "Old Bleach" stamped upon the material. This mark is also a guarantee of the quality and wear. WRITE for the "Old Bleach" book on linen and the handling of linen, gratis, giving reproductions of artistic towel designs, patterns showing quality of linens, huckabacks, diapers, etc.; also addresses of our retail agents where they may be obtained.
