Over the weekend I picked up a neat advertisement from Bailey, Banks & Biddle from 1880.

The text on the back advertises bridal goods, including "Solid Silver Wares."

I wonder if the hieroglyphics in the cartouche on the left of the Egyptian scene translate to anything, or if they are just decorative.

I don't know about the heiroglyphics, but the illustration doesn't seem to augur well for the Bridal Season!
