BETTER FRUIT 



October, 1Q2C 



SAM BIRCH 

 T. J. P. Representative Now in America 



We have a reputation of twenty-five years' service to be upheld and to uphold us. We handle fruit on 

 consignment only. We NEVER buy lots of our own to interfere with or take preference over consigned 

 shipments, hence our best efforts are always devoted to procuring the highest prices for the consignor. 



We solicit your consignments and our Mr. Birch will be in this country every fall to arrange for 

 shipments. Our business necessitates, in addition to shops and stands in the most central position of 

 Covent Garden Market, twelve great warehouses, with a floor space of between five and six acres. 

 Through these warehouses in the course of a year there passes an average of three million packages. 



We have world-wide connections. 



No part of the world where fruit is grown and exported escapes our notice. In addition to the 

 hundreds* of places in the British Isles from whence our supplies are derived, we import fruit from 

 America, Canada, Australia, Tasmania, South Africa, Spain, Canary Islands, Azores, Portugal, France, 

 Italy, Belgium and Holland. We are now directing particular attention to offering American and Can- 

 adian growers the great POUPART service. We make advances to cover freight and accessory charges. 



All communications should be addressed to
