T ESTI MON lALS.
From J. A. Hammersley, Erq., Head Drawing Masterof the
Gorernment School of Design, .Nottingham.
" Sept. 8. 1846

"Dear Sirs,—l have tried all the lead pencils you forwarded to me,
and consider them the best I have ever had; indeed, it is impossible
justly to compare them with any others, as they possess qualities I
never yet found in pencils, amongst which I may name their beau-
tiful transparency and clearness. I have not only made use of them
myself, hut have had them tried by several students in this instita-
;len, and their excellence is acknowledged by my pupils. The double
B's are most superb pencils.

_
"I am, Sirs,
"lours most repectfully,
"J. A. HA3I3IEIISLEY."
From Georg Barnard, Esq., Head Drawing Master, Rugby School.
" 85, Great ortland-street, London, June 25, 1845.
" Gentlemen,—ln reply to your inquiry respecting my opinion of
Ihe quality and value of your new pencils, I do not hesitate to say
that I dud them excellent in all respects, with entire freedom from
grit, and working well, whether hard or sott. These qualities, com-
bined with their moderate price, render them very valuable to
artists and their pupils. _ _

"Truly yours,
" G. BARNARD."

From George Petrie, Esq., P.H.A.

" Great Charles-street, May 27, 1845.
" Gentlemen,—l have tried the set of pencils which you were so
good as to send me, and I have no hesitation in expressing my opi-
nion that they are far superior to any that I have used for many
ears, perhaps, indeed to any that I ever used. Were the price of
them three or four times what it is, I should take them with plea-
sure; and I shall recommend them confidently to my friends.
"I am, Gentlemen,
"Faithfully yours,
"GEOEGE PETRIE, MLA."
"Messrs. Rowney and Co."
"53, Blackett-street, Newcastle-on-Tyne, July, 1845.
Gentlemen,—l have made use of your new pencils, and consider
them a most desirable acquisition either to the artist or the amateur.
They work pleasantly, and the variety of tint which they are capable
of producing renders them valuable in sketching.
" I am, Gentlemen,
"-Vont*, most truly,

The manufacturers particularly request the attention of the trade
to their pencils.

the immense quantity, they are compelled to sell them at a sa-
crifice unprecedented.

their extensive and valuable assortment of MANTILLAS and FURS,
with their unrivalled collection of INDIA, BRITISH, and FRENCH
SHAWLS, to be included in this Sale, and to facilitate which,
