And now in 1936—3040 years later when discriminating 
tastes demand beauty, richness and permanency in the form of 
engraved brass or bronze, the oldest and most exclusive item 
of all garden furniture, the writer has designed for you a 
beautiful etched SUNDIAL that will be the finest thing of its 
kind in your district and exclusive. 
DIRECTIONS FOR MOUNTING 
This should be done at exactly 12 o'clock noon at which 
time the indicator will not cast a shadow on either side— 
pedestal must be level for best accuracy—some prefer a bolder, 
others a log or fine cut marble. 
We will not go into a lot of detail now, as the picture here 
speaks for itself, the Dial is 10 inch diameter, with a beautiful 
Gnomen or indicator and a post extending down about 2 inches 
on bottom to be set in concrete or other method of making 
stationary—or if desired it can be removed. Besides for your 
local trade, tourists occasionally take these along with them 
as a souvenir from the Golden Gate. This is our exclusive work 
manufactured to our own design. 
These are occasionally used in cemetery lots.

er was a Horticulturist, he studied these pages-1 have done the
