Roxford Shoppers

This ad from a 1910 issue of The Clothier and Furnisher, shows a couple of stylish gentlemen, shopping for their Roxfords. A sales clerk carefully measures the customer on the left, to insure a that he gets a perfect fit, while the second shopper  scrutinizes the merchandise. The man behind the counter looks a little tense, watching the expressions of his choosy young customer. Will "the good knitted underwear" be good enough for him? Note the little Roxford poster hanging above the counter; an ad within an ad.
