Waterproof Crepe Paper 



Manufacturers, Importers, Originators. 



The use of Waterproof Crepe Paper has become 

 universal. 



It makes a fine plant more tempting, adds a 

 dressiness, and a finish that enhances its value. 



The advantage of Waterproof Crepe Paper is that 

 the plants may be dressed ahead of time; the paper 

 that won't spoil when wet is the paper you need. 



It can be had in these colors: Nile, moss, laven- 

 der, violet, white, pink, yellow and red. 



The Rice Standard in Waterproof Crepe Paper is 

 the best, as in all other florists' supplies. 



PRICE: 

 Per dozen rolls, $1.75; 100 rolls, $12«00«
