    CIRCULAR. JOHN TEETGEN is earnestly desirous of returning lhanks to all those by whom he has been so kindly supported [rom the first opening his present establishment, and embraces ;lus opportunity of expressing his deep sense of gratitude for Savours received. He is rejoiced that the principle of IELLING GOOD AND WELL MADE ARTICLES, AT MODERATE PRICES; IARKING EVERY ARTICLE IN PLAIN AND LEGIBLE FIGURES ; AKING BACK ALL GOODS THAT ARE NOT FULLY SATISFACTORY ; ias been appreciated; he is therefore resolved to continue the • ame system, and by all other means endeavour to deserve Patronage. Respecting the peculiarities of the DIAMOND-EDGE UNPOLISHED “ TALLY HO ” RAZORS, . T. is anxious to give a correct notion of their merits. They re truly an achievement of MODERN SCIENCE; and, with o more labour or work bestowed on them than to render them | Is excellent as Art can, and as only of late Art ever could ender them, they have every stroke of work, and that done in .most skilful manner, that is needful. THE STEEL they re made from cannot by possibility be excelled, and scarcely quailed, and the Temper is imparted by such an, accurate pro- iess, that the least degree below excellence is almost impossible l jnd (the most important singularity in these Razors) they are Yery one subjected to a severe and secret Test, by which, jhould there by chance or accident be the least defect in this ital quality, it is at once detected, when such are broken p unfinished, because unfit. Owing to this it is, that of the }iousands that have passed through the hands of J. T. every ne would endure to have its edge in fine shaving trim drawn ver and cutting into a piece of horn without being dete- jorated. J. T. solicits Gentlemen to witness this trial of uality. They have also one other singularity assisting to xcellence, which it is unnecessary to disclose. An unequivo- ably worded hCNED WARRANTY IS GIVEN WITH EACH RAZOR. THE PRICES enable all classes to furnish themselves nth one or two of these desirable implements, 2s.,■—2s. 3d., s. 6d., and Ivory, 3s. fid. each, and upwards, case included. THE BLADES ARE ALL OF ONE QUALITY; ivery one examined, set, packed, and sealed by J. T. [TURN OVER,
