Condition Report

Text of typed label reads, "New York. Third Avenue, where, should you require a sedanchair, a complete set of cigar-store Indians, a gentleman's decorated china pleasure-cat, or a shrunken javanese head, you can be instantly accommodated or, with old-world courtesy, persuaded to accept a Louis-the-Fourteenth milking-stool instead. Overhead flutters that inspired piece of bric-à-brac, the Elevated Railway, which, unfortunately, is not for sale."
