PATENT REVOLVING 



^ SEED CASES. 



This most complete, convenient and showy 

 Seed Case was designed by ourselves, especially 

 for dealers who have but little counter-room to 

 spare and yet wish to carry a good assortment of 

 Henderson's Vegetable and Flower Seeds. We 

 consider this case the fineit ever produced, the 

 packets being so arranged in them that "they 

 sell themselYes," as the customer can see 

 what is wanted without the necessity of disturb- 

 ing the entire contents of the case, each variety 

 being clearly in view as the revolving case is 

 turned around. A patent contrivance always 

 keeps the packets to the front. When our 

 superb lithographed packets of seeds are dis 

 played in this case they make a very ornamental 

 appearance, worthy of a prominent position in 

 any store. The stand only occupies a counter 

 space of 2 x 2 feet, the dimensions being : dia- 

 meter at bottom, 25 inches : height, including 

 Sign, 40 inches. 54 compartments for Vege- 

 table Seeds. 36 compartments for Flower 

 Seeds, and will hold on top 50 Y 2 pint Cartons 

 of Peas, Beans and Corn. Each compartment 

 will hold from 10 to 20 packets, according to 

 the size of the Seeds. 



f^p" These "■Revolving" Seed Cases we do 

 not sell., but we will loan one to every dealer ordering our Seeds in lithographed packages and bulk combined (in fair proportions), 

 of not less than $50.00, net, annually. We make no charge for packing or shipping, but freight charges must be paid by customers.
