■RUBBER FOOTWEAR^ 
the password to foot comfort in winter 
There’s wonderful wearing ability in Lambertville Rubber Footwear 
—grateful comfort and absolute protection from the wet. Why? 
Simply because this footwear is better built, of better rubber and plenty 
of it; no thin spots, just wear and value right down to the ground. 
Lambertville Rubber Footwear is made in Arctics, Boots and Shoes, 
In four brands of various grades at prices to suit all requirements: 
“Snag-Proof,” all rubber and duck; *‘L” brand, duck vamp; “Lamco,” 
pure gum with ribs. 
The “Redskin,” shown above, is made entirely of red rubber. 
We’ve made them as near wearproof and comfort-perfect as best rub¬ 
ber will permit. There is a Lambertville dealer near you; if you don’t 
locate him, write us and we will see that you are sup¬ 
plied. Send for booklet. 
Shown here is a “Snag-Proof” arctic 
made in rubber and cloth tops, but we 
recommend the all-rubber. It costs a little 
more, but wears much longer.
