OCT. 1915 Here's All the Test I Want

I’ve bought a good many tons of paper, but I haven’t discovered any super way to get uniform quality--at an economical price--than to stick to the paper which bears this Hammermill water mark.

The maker has more at stake than I have, for if the paper turns out badly he has damaged the prestige of his priceless trade mark. It’s a safe bet, that the watermark, ‘Hammermill Bond’, will never go on paper that isn’t right.

Hammermill Bond is a paper of excellent quality. It is sold at so reasonable a price that a great many large concerns use it exclusively for office forms, stationery, price lists, bill heads, etc. It frequently offers a saving of 25% to 50%.

Perhaps the greatest single advantage of specifying Hammermill Bond is that your printer can get any quantity without delay.

MARCH 5TH, 1916. How to Standardize Stationary

MANY printers have told us that of the twenty odd portfolios we issued during 1915, the above is one of the most useful.

Of course, when you are going after hotel or railroad customers you need the hotel or railroad Hammermill Portfolios.

You really need the whole series of portfolios (one for each kind of business), but send for the one above anyway. It will be useful every day.

One idea in issuing so many elaborate portfolios is because the needs of each kind of business vary and in order to quickly secure an order you must show forms and samples relating directly to that particular business.

These portfolios are a tremendous aid in soliciting printing on Hammermill Bond. It isn't fair to your salesmen to be without your set.
