Dear Friends ana* Customers:,
V/e are happy to report that our introduction of Bo'ta.flex Sa'on, the new upholstery p'astic wov
en by Neisler Mills of Kings Mountain was an unqualified success.
A large number of people in the Kings Mo'intain trading area has visited our store since last Fri
day to see this new product, and many have bought furniture covered in this fine new plastic and
others indicated they expect to buy it- in the near future. We, in turn, have already re-ordered
from our furniture manufacturer and expect to keep this merchandise on our floor at all times.
We feel Noisier Mills will have much success in manufacturing this plastic and we wish Neisler
well in it. Neisler has been most cooperative in aiding us in this first-in-Kings Mountain showing.
?
If you haven't seen this new developement in plastic, come in today and let us demonstrate why it's
more comfortable, longer-wearing, cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
Cordially,
DAN HUFFSTETLER, Mgr.
