"Troy Cheap Clothing Store" William Campbell (1851)

                    Extra Notice.

Your Clothing of the nicest kind,

At Campbell's you are sure to find;

                                212 1-2 River street.

If you want Clothing for yourself or a boy,

At Campbell's call; you'll find a rich supply,

At various prices, and of various sizes, yet

At one price, as they in value rise.


You must confess his clothing do fit great,

There is nothing like them in the Empire State;

His business he makes, to suit as well as sell,

As those who have tried testify full well.


And still you'll find it as I said before,

At No. 212½ Troy Cheap Clothing Store,

In the Times, Journal and Post, you'll see

A daily notice of cheap clothes and me.

                 The Proprietor, WM. CAMPBELL,

                         212½ River st., second Clothing

                                 Store below the Troy House.

Troy Daily Times. December 26, 1851: 3 col 4.
