Dr. John Watson

Nothing I like better than hearing about Holmes in a tight spot.

And whenever our adversary proved to be the notorious Professor Moriarty, it was generally a very tight spot.

Professor Moriarty.

Wasn't he the man Holmes referred to as the Napoleon of crime?

The same.

Actually, this case began when Sir George Westbrook discovered a corpse dressed in a Roman senator's toga, tunic, and sandals.

Holmes always maintained he could deduce a man's entire history from his wardrobe.

But this time... Doctor, speaking of judging people by their clothes, I thought I... Oh, bless my soul.

Yes, of course.

I almost forgot.

Let's have a few words from our sponsor, who is also an authority on the subject of gentlemen's apparel.

May I say, Dr. Watson, that most people, like Mr. Holmes, do judge people by their appearance.

That's mighty important in connection with clipper-craft clothes.

Because you'd never guess, clipper-craft costs so little.

Such low prices for such truly fine quality are rare, to say the least.

Clipper Craft suits are yours for only $35 and $40, with a few special numbers at $43.75.

Topcoats and overcoats are only $30 to $40, and sport jackets $24.

These are planned values, the result of the Clipper Craft plan concentrating the buying power of 924 leading stores across the country.

resulting in tremendous savings in manufacturing and distribution costs.

Remember, all this is yours in your own local independent store, where friendly attention is traditionally yours.
