Advance Bulb List is indicative of many things, an appreciation of the beauty 

ieee . : x Max Schling Seedsmen, Inc. 
The warm and gratifying response we have received upon the issuance of our ft NEW YORK CITY 



of spring bulbs which were planted last year in many instances for the first 
time since 1939, and the desire of many to observe a symbol of peace right in their own gardens. 
The romance of the preservation of the Holland bulb fields under the duress of a painful foreign 
occupation will undoubtedly provide exciting material for authors and historians for generations to 
come. 
The season of 1946 will see Holland bulb production right back to normal. Prices are lower, qual- 
ity and selection materially improved. 
Our guarantee label which appears throughout this catalog means exactly what it says. During the 
past five years it has required great effort and ingenuity on our part to have been able to offer as 
comprehensive a bulb listing as we had in that period. It was not always possible for us to supply 
bulbs of as fine appearance and size as we would have liked to supply, although the blooming per- 
formance of our wartime stocks was excellent. 
We know now that we can supply top quality in top size bulbs, and that is why we are eager to 
make this guarantee. There is no question about our bulbs this year. They will be better than ever. 
Postage paid on all orders for bulbs only, im second postal zone from New York City. All other orders im excess of five pounds will be 
shipped express collect, unless remittance for postage accompanies order.
