NOW HERE'S THE PLAN I PROPOSED. ONLY $3.00 WILL START YOU! Certainly that 
is within the easy reach of anyone. Now there could be no further reason for any- 
one to delay. You too can start to enjoy this sensational, fascinating hobby or 
you can get ready to CASH IN from sales of miniature trees. So you see —- by 
helping you -- we help ourselves. The plan is good. It makes sense! 
Well, I hit the nail on the head. Our credit manager had to admit that I 
had a strong point. But as usual-- credit managers are hard-heads. They're 
cautious -- they move slow. Right away he presented the extra cost of bookeeping 
and other expenses. But to make a long story short -- I GOT HIM TO AGREE TO TRY 
IT. Now the rest is up to you. 
AFTER ALL -- IT'S NOT REALLY A SALE. It's just a good faith deposit. The 
real object is to put the complete plan inte your hands for your personal exam— 
ination -- for your personal reading. It is my definite policy to LET THE 
MINIATURE TREE PLAN SELL ITSELF! I'm downright proud of the simplicity and 
completeness of our plan and so many people share my enthusiasm that I know if I 
can just help you get started -- the plan will do the rest. On the other hand 
if you weren't completely satisfied, you could still return the entire plan 
within 7 days for a full refund, so it really didn't matter whether you put up a 
ten dollar deposit or a’three dollar one. The important thing was to "LOOK" 
the entire plan over. 
You can see for yourself how you can easily grow these living wonders. 
I'll teach you every secret -- the secrets that the Japanese guarded under the 
penalty of death. I'1l show you how to plant and cultivate these "giants in 
miniature" for less than 5¢ each and only a few minutes daily attention. It's 
that outstanding -- you can grow 10 - 20 -— 50 — 100 — yes, even a 1000 right in 
your own home in spare time. IT'S JUST LIKE PUTTING MONEY IN THE BANK —- the 
longer you keep these trees -- the more they are worth! 
If you wanted to buy one of the decorative, dead "Ming" trees that are so 
popular now, you would expect to pay at least $12.00 — $20 or even $50 for a 
Single one -- wouldn't you? That's right because dead "Ming" trees are in 
great demand as inside-the-house decorative pieces. 
THINK IT OVER. If these dead imitations cost so much -— just imagine what 
the ACTUAL REAL-LIFE LIVING TREE WOULD COST! You're right again -- not only is 
it worth more -- but there is a greater demand for it! 
I know this sounds unbelieveable — but it's possible because the Japanese 
and Chinese have been doing it for centuries -- hundreds of folks just like 
yourself are doing it -- AND SO CAN YOU! It's amazing -- but true. 
This is the last time that I can write to yous No — it isn't that I feel 
independent -- not in the least. It's just that I have nothing else to offer 
you. I've told you about it -- I've made it easy for you on this new payment 
plan -- I've even shown you what others think of my plan -- what more can I do? 
The rest is entirely up to you. This is your last chance to be first. I'm 
going to hold the special offer open in your name for 15 more days. The thing to 
do -- RIGHT NOW -- is to fill out the enclosed order form and mail it with your 
remittance AT ONCE. You'll thank me for acquainting you with something that is 
-so worthwhile -- something that you will enjoy. May I hear from you? 
ae yours, + ae 
John Kiktavi, ee Manager
