 Saucers, Vases 



Fibrotta Ware is made of Indurated Fiber — wood pulp, chemically hardened and 

 compressed. It is far superior to either wood or earthen ware, as it is moulded in one 

 piece — no hoops necessary — cannot warp and is practically unbreakable. 



In plant tubs, rolling stands, saucers and vases, Fibrotta is the ware you should carry, 

 both for your own use and for your customers. You'll find Fibrotta a real business 

 builder in this department, as it's infinitely more cleanly, durable and economical than 

 any other ware you can handle. It comes in either mahogany finish or green enamel. 



Ask your jobber to show you Fibrotta or write to us for price list.

 continuing the business, a practical man 

 and with a trade that has been estab-

 necessitates the services of two principals 

 and will shortly add a partner to his 

 enterprise.
