"Brand Blotters"
William MacLeod Raine
I was amused with the handbill, stuck up against the walls of this inn, or hotel, as it is called; announcing it to be the largest, the completest, the most magnificent, with a thousand et caeteras, in the universe; and recounting not only its numerous accommodations, but the multifarious trades which it contained within its own walls; to all which was added a playhouse.
"Anna St. Ives"
Thomas Holcroft
The first thing I saw next morning when I went out of the house was a handbill on a telegraph pole.
