I can't figure it out either... I guess it's a clothing sale but it sounds more like a theater production. Fun ad, though.

I think old ads like this are fun-- so over the top. :)

Haha, trousering.

IKR? Why not "shirting" and "collaring"? And coatings sounds like they're going to dip or spray you in something. "I'm ready to be winterized. Please apply a clear polyurethane coating to my undercarriage."

I have no idea what French Merinos, Coburgs, and Delaines are. Designer names perhaps? Whatever they are, I want them!

It's fabrics - French Merino, Coburg, etc., are types of woolens (light and wonderful). There is such a thing as 'shirting', but it's not advertised here. Trousering is simply fabrics of the appropriate weave and weight for making mens' trousers.

I didn't know that. I don't wear wool, so I know nothing about it. I'm not allergic, I just can't stand the itchiness and I'm too hot natured. I am all about cotton, baby!

I know there's something known as collaring, but it doesn't have anything to do with clothing. Well, not the production of it, anyway.

Thanks for the info!

It's FABICS!!!! And they sound absolutely scrummy! Have you got a year for this?

I think this ad proves that one of the original Dada artists was moonlighting.
