VICTORIA HAT DEPOT.
ANOTHER PROOF OF COMPETITION.

BEST HAT THAT CAN BE MADE FOR EIGHTEEN
SHILLINGS AND SIXPENCE.
SAMUEL BIRT and CO., 60, Lord-street, Liverpool,
in again appearing before the Public, beg to return their
sincere acknowledgments for the Patronage they have re-
ceived, and to remind them, that they were the first in this
town, to offer the very best London Mats for 20s. each.
S. 13. and Co., having perfected their arrangements for
manufacturing best Hats, now offer to the Public the best
that can be produced at Eighteen Shillings and Sixpence
each. It is not generally known, that the Hats hitherto
sold as London Hats are nearly all manufactured in Lanca-
shire, and sent up to London, from.whence they come down
as London Hats, and are sold in this town at 265. each. S.
B. and Co. pledge themselves, that their Hats, at 18s. 6d.
each, will equal, if not exceed, in quality those hitherto sold
as London Hats at 265. No doubt, Haberdashers, Tailors,
and Dealers in Hats assert, that this cannot be afforded, but
,one trial will prove the fact beyond dispute. All other kinds
at a proportionate reduction. The best Silk Hats that can
be made, particularly recommended, warranted not to spot
or to be discoloured by sea air, only 6s. 9d. Best White
Hats that can be made 4s. 6d. A great variety of Children's
Velvet and Cloth Caps.
