n^UE Rapid Rapper has no drawbacks, 

 '*' 00 disadvantages one way or another 

 to impede its function as a money-saving, 

 time-saving and thoroughly efficient wrap-

 and growers.

 florists' wrapping problems— and it does. 



By means of the Rapid Rapper any 



inexperienced boy or girl can wrap your 

 plants and baskets— rapidly, neatly, and 

 use less than one-half the paper required 



by the old method. No more time wasting 

 here ! Moreover, when you use the Rapid 

 Rapper, you may rest assured that the 

 package delivered is attractive, that plant 

 or basket has perfect protection and last, 

 but not least, that you give your customer 

 satisfaction.
