"soa:shipt Sense"


This is the title of very interest
ing little book about "Sealshipt"
oysters. 1t gives much valuable infor-
nation about cooking and serving the
delicious bivalve," and contains new
recipes for preparing,
What will appeal to every oyster
lover is the detailed description OF
how "Sealshipt" oysters differ from
other kinds-how they are shocked
into galvanized steel containers and
packed alright with ice around the
containers. but not in contact with the
oysters. The 'Sealshipt' shipping
carrier system is what accounts for
the cleanliness and delicacy of flavor
OF 'Sealshipt' oysters.
The price of "Sealshipt" oysters is
higher than that of tub oysters; but
they go so much farther that they ac-
tually cost you less-besides having
/! the full, delicious sea flavor which tub
oysters cannot have.
| We have "Sealshipt Sense" books
and will gladly give you one We
sell "Sealshipt'' oysters exclusively
