Aquariums, Pools, Fountains 
The COMETS are the speedsters of the Goldfish, their slender bodies and long, powerful fins making them 
extremely rapid swimmers. Fin developments vary considerably, and the so-called Ribbontails are Comet 
Goldfish with unusually deep cleft tail fins. The illustration gives a photographically correct interpretation of 
variations occurring, both as to fin developments and coloring, in the shipments our customers receive. 
"Frankly, I have seen and bought Fan- 
tails in the stores of importers; I have 
bought them from importers on the 
Pacific Coast; I have seen them in pri¬ 
vate aquariums, and 1 have seen them 
in the great Metropolitan Public 
Aquariums, but never have I seen such 
specimens as those which you sent me, 
and those which you have on exhibit 
in the Indiana Building pool, in the 
Court of States, at A Century of Prog¬ 
ress Exposition.”—John S. Van Gil¬ 
der, Knoxville, Tenn., October 20, 
1933.
