An Inspiration
Is often wished for when the time comes for
making suitable selections of gifts for Christ
mas, and realizing this we invite your inspec
tion of our Holiday display of
White and Smoke Tanned Car
ibou and Moose Hide Mocassins
In offering these mocassin-slippers we do so
with the assurance that the selection is the
most extensive collection of beautiful Alaska
Native work that has ever been offered.
These mocassins met the requirements of the
most fastidious and exacting tourists during
the past season and taxed our facilities to the
utmost to secure them insufficient quantities
to meet the demand. These are all made es
pecially for us, decorated with exclusive de
signs in bead and porenpine quill, and it will
be a well pleased person who receives a pair
as a Christmas gift.
These should appeal especially to those per
sons wishing to send a gift to the states, as
the mocassics pack conveniently and pass
through the mails without the slightest dan
ger of damage In transit.
