DEAR FLOWER FRIEND: 
Better gladioli — how to obtain them. A 
subject of real interest isn't it? 
On April 23 last Mrs. A. H. Gibson of Lancaster, 
N. H., wrote us telling of the wonderful success she had 
with Kunderd Gladioli. In Mrs. Gibson's own words, "I want 
to let you know that the bulbs arrived all in splendid shape and I 
was much surprised at the specials for at the price of your collections 
one couldn't expect extras, nevertheless I am very grateful for them. 
I surely enjoy 'glads' and can hardly wait for them to bloom. I entered 
eight Kunderd specials at our annual flower show last year and won six 
blue ribbons. Also won first and second for the best collections and 
they were nearly all Kunderd's." 
You too can enjoy this same measure of success with your 
gladioli if you purchase them direct from the originators — A. E. 
Kunderd, Inc. 
Prizewinning horses and stock trace their ancestry back to previous 
prizewinners of outstanding merit. It follows the same in flowers. 
To raise a crop of Champions we must plant the seed of Champions. 
We pride ourselves on having been growing these prizewinners for 
years and years. 
Kunderd Gladioli have been carefully selected and grown for years. 
The earliest crosses were made on the then best varieties in existence 
and the original wild species from whence came this sturdy race of 
Kunderd Gladioli. With them came the Ruffled Gladiolus which 
created such a sensation. 
This same careful selection and hybridizing is going on today so 
that the new Kunderd Gladiolus creations, have, in even greater 
abundance, that same character, sturdiness and exquisite coloring 
that has made Kunderd Gladioli the most outstanding gladio'i in the 
world. 
On the following pages we are offering you the opportunity to 
convince yourself of the superiority of Kunderd Gladioli. We have 
selected from our extensive list, 25 varieties, 2 bulbs of each kind, 
fifty bulbs in all for only $2.00. And with each order for one of these 
collections of gladiolus we give you absolutely FREE a bulb, properly 
labeled of course, of "Vermilion", the beautiful variety shown in 
color on this page. 
Order today — now — while it is on your mind. Just fill in the order 
blank enclosed. 
Sincerely yours. 
A. E. KUNDERD INC.
