THE 



"Boston Shooting Suit."

MANUFACTURED ONLY BY 



G. W. SIMMONS & SON, 



Boston, ]MLa»s. 



Sold everywhere in the U. S. by all first-class 

 dealers in 



SPORTSMEN'S GOODS. 



EACH GARMENT DISTINCLY MARKED 



f "BOSTON SHGOTINU SUIT," "] 



made by 



I C.W. Simmons & Son. J 



This new design of Waterproof Shootjng Suit, 

 made from extra quality duck, has acquired quick 

 celebrity. Advertised for the first time m April last 

 in the Forest and Stream, in five oiomhs it Las at- 

 tained such popularity as to be called for from ail 

 parts of the country, and even from England 



"Shipping clotliing to England strikes us very much 

 like sending 'Coals 10 Newcastle, 1 but the merit* 

 of the "BOSTON SHOOTING SUITS" have been 

 heard of in the O.d Country, and that land of sports- 

 men has sent an order to iVlessrs. Simmons & Son, 

 which .will doubtless be followed by many others. 

 Our Editor in-Chaf, v\ ho knows something about a 

 sportsman's requirements, is using this same equip- 

 ment in ihe Adirondacks."— Boston Paper. 



The design embraces the best points of the English 

 and French Suits, combined with the necessary re- 

 quirements for American service. Particular atten- 

 tention has been paid to color. 



Each suit is thoroughly water-proofed bv a new pat- 

 ent process. The seams and pocket corners being 

 securely fastened, and nothing neglected to render 

 the suit perfect in every respect. 



The price has been iixed at $13, to include Hat or 

 Double Visored Cap, Detachable Haverlock, Coat, 

 Vest, and Pantaloons. 



One hundred suits will be kept ready in stock, so 

 that we can furnish to order any size required, at a 

 moment's notice. 



In the Golden Ride (Rev. W. H. H. Murray's paper) 

 the enthusiastic editor writes:— 



"We were shown, the other day, a new water-proof 

 suit, specially adapted for sportsmen, designed and 

 made up by Simmons & Son, of Boston, and to which 

 we cad the attention of all brethren of the out-door 

 and shore-shooting fraternity, because it meets the 

 demand of personal comfort and convenience bt yond 

 anything of home manufacture seen by us before. 

 As a sportsman, we give it our unqualified endorse- 

 ment, as combining he bet pojms of the English 

 suits, and in addition skilfully adapted to the neces- 

 sities of the American service. It is a most admirable 

 and satisfactory contrivance in color, style, water- 

 proof quality and capacity. The coat is a marvel 

 in this latter respect." 



Persons ordering from a distance need send only 

 the following to be sure of a perfect lit:— Breast Mea- 

 sure, Waist Measure. Inside Seam Coat Sleeve, Inside 

 Seam Pantaloons; Mention Height u„d \V eiyut.
