WESTS 



PATENT 



The 



"Ivorine" 

 Writing 

 Disc, 



being made 

 of a Selluloid 

 and Xylonite 

 composition, 

 is im; erish 

 able, and 

 does not 

 corrode or 

 eat away, 

 like wood and 

 metal labels ; 

 and. being 

 ivory • white, 

 when writ- 

 ten upon it 

 shows to per- 

 fection. And 

 also, as the 

 writing is on 



the Ivorine 



itself it is permanent, though washable, and does not become 

 unreadable like all other labels, for hitherto all labels have been 

 painted, as the paint gets old. It is for labelling every descrip- 

 tion of goods when used with or without the wires, and will last 

 a century, either in a greenhouse, in a wine cellar, or out in a 

 garden, and not only is it always ready for use, and may be 

 written on both sides, but the name when written in pencil may 

 be easily rubbed off, and so used as many times as desired. 



Samples and Lists of the West's Patent Specialities post free. 

 Price, 9d. per dozen ; 8 a. per gross, complete ; 7 s. per gross 

 without wires, Carriage Paid. Size a little larger than illustra. 

 tion, and wires 2 i«s. longer from loop. (See List for other 

 sizes). Special ink, if required, in 6d. bottles, per post.
