R & G Corset Never STRETCH
The extreme straight front corset of 1900 was forehadowed by the moderately straight R & G No. 397 of 1898. The 397 was, and ism the corset of comfort with the essence of style. It is straight enough for the prevailing vogue, and curved enough to con- form to healthful anatomical lines. During 1900 many dealers have sold it ad a "straight front" corset. To be sur, it is more nearly a straight front than many corsets that were sold under that misleading title, but an R & G straight front is quite another matter.
In 1900 we were unable to fully meet the demand for straigh front goods and un- willing to resort to our factory facilites enable us to keep the trade supplied with real straight front corsets, at retail prises from $1.00 to $2,50; and also with our 397, 197, Empire, and other pooular numbers.
More than 11,000 dealers now sell R & G Corsets, and every dealer will get them for you if you ask him. If you have any trouble about it, send direct to the R & G Corset Corset Company, 363 Broadway. New York.
Every R & G Corset is sold with the understanding that it must give satisfaction to the wearer, or dealer will supply a new one free of cost. Wbelieve no other corset wil support so broad a guarantee.
