Delightful! It took me a moment to realize that "As cut" means "As shown in the picture." I found myself thinking about all those wooden doll house furniture pieces with opening drawers and such. All hand work. They could have stamped out the pieces by machine, but assembling them surely required human labor.

Thank you, Lyons, for the great upload! When I first read the prices, I thought that was mighty steep for 1901. I'd failed to notice that the price was usually for a dozen of each item. Wow, to go back to that time with a hundred dollar bill in your pocket. Phew!!!
