But one of their catalogs might feature a few pages of regalia and related ceremonial accoutrements especially for, say, the B. of L. F. and E., while the balance comprised, at least in this instances, descriptions with illustrations of the general line of their merchandise— just in case the brotherhood fancied the trick bottom chair or a pledge altar. Includes over thirty pages of advice on how use their burlesque and other regalia. See Julia Sails’ The Extraordinary Catalog of Peculiar Inventions.
