MESSRS. MILLER & RICHARD, OF EDINBURGH AND LONDON,

TYPE FOUNDERS TO HER MAJESTY FOR SCOTLAND,

Beg leave to call the attention of Printers to the BREVIER (Roman capitals and lower case) Type cast by them for the Metropolitan Division of the Great Exhibition Illustrated Catalogue; and also to their Specimen of the "BRILLIANT" Type in this Exhibition, which is the smallest Type ever manufactured in this country. Upon examination, it will be found the most perfect and most highly finished as yet produced, being cast by their improved and Patented process.

MILLER & RICHARD would direct the attention of Newspaper Proprietors to their Founts cut expressly for Newspaper work, which have long enjoyed the reputation of being the most durable that are produced. Their Type has been used for many years in "THE TIMES," "THE MORNING HERALD," "THE MORNING ADVERTISER," "THE MORNING CHRONICLE," and several other leading London journals; also in many of the principal Provincial papers, in England, Scotland, and Ireland.

They have, further, satisfaction in alluding to their Type in the Bibles, Testaments, and Prayer Books printed at the Clarendon Press, Oxford, which form beautiful Specimens of their Book Founts.

E. WOLFF & SON'S

NEWLY INVENTED

CRETA LÆVIS, OR PERMANENT DRAWING CHALKS,

IN CEDAR, IN EVERY VARIETY OF COLOUR,

23, CHURCH-STREET, SPITALFIELDS, LONDON.

E. WOLFF and SoN beg to state that they have, by the introduction of great improvements in their CRETA LEVIS, enabled it to be used the same as the ordinary pencils; and effects can now be produced equal to Water Colour Drawings, without the use of water or any other fluid, the various colours blending together with perfect harmony, beauty, and richness. It can be cut to a fine point, and is thus capable of giving a very delicate outline.

For Sketching from nature, the great advantages resulting from the adoption of the CRETA LEVIS must be obvious, as, without the use of water, palette, brushes, &c., all the various tints can be obtained with a truthfulness that cannot be surpassed, and by their compact form may be carried any distance without the slightest inconvenience; thus superseding every other method in general use.

The drawings may be carried in a portfolio with safety, as, unlike other Crayons, they will neither rub off nor suffer injury by coming in contact with the usuual contents of a portfolio.

The CRETA LEVIS, unlike the indelible or wax Crayons, will not be affected by heat or change of climate.
WOLFF & SON'S IMPROVED CRAYON PAPER is the best for the CRETA LEVIS.

To be had of all Artists' Colourmen and respectable Stationers, in leather boxes, containing sets of 12, 18, 24, 36, 48 assorted colours. A pattern card containing the whole of the shades and colours, with their names and numbers attached to each shade, price is. each. CAUTION.-As there are several spurious imitations, it is necessary to observe that every pencil is stamped "CRETA LEVIS, E. WOLFF AND SON, LONDON," with the name of the colour. Creta Lævis Drawings lent to copy. (See Specimens at the Great Exhibition, Hyde Park, Class 30.)

E. WOLFF & SON'S PURIFIED CUMBERLAND LEAD PENCILS,

PERFECTLY FREE FROM GRIT, MAY BE ENTIRELY ERASED, AND WILL MAINTAIN A FIRM POINT.

E. WOLFF and SON beg to inform Artists, Architects, and Engineers, that they have succeeded in so greatly improving their Black Lead, that they are now manufacturing a PLUMBAGO or BLACK LEAD PENCIL entirely free from grit, which will easily yield to Indian Rubber, and ensure perfect erasure; it possesses great brilliancy and depth of colour, and will maintain a firm point. They have attained to so great a perfection in the manufacture of this Lead, as to be able at all times to make the same strength and colour when once found to be suitable for any particular purpose, and have produced a pencil fully equal to those used in former years, when they were made of the finest Cumberland lead, which at the present time cannot be obtained from the mines sufficiently pure for the best pencils. The following are the degrees:-H, HH, HHH, HHHH, F, FF, HB, EHB, B, BB, BBB, BBBB, W.** This pencil is particularly recommended for writing and counting-house use. E. WOLFF and SON have the honour of supplying their PURIFIED BLACK LEAD PENCILS to Her Majesty's Stationery Office, the Admiralty, the Bank of England, several Railway Companies, and many other Public Establishments.
