Summary

Description
English: In "Editorial Miscellany", The Phonographic World, Vol. VIII.– No. 5, January 1893, 31 Broadway, New York City, E.N. Minder, editor, the editorial stated: " The Gem Paper Clip, advertised for the first time in the WORLD this month, and just placed on the markedt by Cushman & Denison, of New York, is one of the most useful contrivances we have ever seen. Be certain to read their advertisement." Searching this volume, I found two identical advertisements - this is one of them. The original may be viewed, here. https://hdl.handle.net/2027/mdp.39015011409193?urlappend=%3Bseq=485 The significance of this image is that it is a very early Gem Paper Clip advertisement - previously, the earliest one found by https://www.officemuseum.com/paper_clips.htm was Nov. 1893.
