Like Mark Twain
Everyone has enjoyed Mr. Clemens’ famous comment on his premature obituary notice—“These reports of my death are grossly exaggerated.”
So it is with the very erroneous but somewhat prevalent notion that “there isn’t any Walnut left in American forests.”
It isn’t true. (And happy news it is for those who always have loved and coveted this “cabinet-wood of the elect.”)
There are enormous quantities of American Walnut trees still standing in their patient and supreme majesty—growing year by year and awaiting the moment when they shall come into the homes of their admirers, there to become the choicest heirlooms of the wisest Furniture buyers of two continents.
If anyone tells you otherwise, just smile—and renew your insistence—(then walk out.) Tell the furniture man to let you know when he gets in some good designs in American Walnut.
The brochure, de luxe, on American Walnut is being prepared for your library table. On your request it will come, when ready, with our compliments. Will you place your name on the list for one of the First Edition? Drop us a Card. Thank you.
