VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is a vintage advertisement for Samuel Fox & Co. Ltd. , which highlights their specialization in steel manufacturing. The ad prominently features the company name at the top, with bold lettering and decorative elements that convey an industrial aesthetic typical of early 20th-century advertising. On the left side, there are details about their products: "MANUFACTURERS OF COLD ROLLED STRIP AND COLD DRAWN WIRE, " suggesting they produce steel strips and wires through cold rolling and drawing processes. Below this text, there's an illustration of a classic truck with visible cargo labeled as "K16, 35L, SW3, S. 3, " possibly referring to different types of steel products or grades. The central part of the ad emphasizes their expertise: "WE SPECIALIZE IN Cold Working 'FIRTH STAYBRITE' STEEL into WIRE" followed by specifications such as "COLD ROLLED STRIP — All Sizes POLISHED & UNPOLISHED. " This indicates a focus on producing high-quality Firth Staybrite stainless steel in various forms and finishes. To the right side of the advertisement is an image of a biplane flying diagonally upwards, signifying dynamism and perhaps hinting at one application area for their materials—aviation. At the bottom center lies additional information about Samuel Fox & Co. , including location ("Stocksbridge Works, NEAR SHEFFIELD"), contact details (a phone number), and what seems to be a trademark or slogan ("Grams: 'Fox-Direct. '"). Lastly, three codes are listed along the bottom right corner—"D. T. D. 435, " "D. T. D. 43S, " and "D. T. D. 43H"—which may refer to specific standards or product designations related to defense or technical delivery terms relevant during that era.
