The A.S.T. Company

Father Time, carrying a scythe hung with old boots and an hour glass walks off to the right as a new boot appears on the left. Text on the front: "The A.S.T.Co. trade mark/Black leather tip defies time./"Well, young fellow, I don't seem to make any impression on you. I'll just cart off this/useless rubbish, and call to see you next year."/"You'll find me just the same." Text on the back: "Parents!/See to it that your children's shoes are/protected at the top with the/A.S.T. Co. trade mark/black leather tip/and thus/reduce your shoe bills/one-half./Wm. Martin & Co.,/dealers in/boots, shoes and slippers/10 State Street,/North Adams, Mass." Printed by Donaldson Brothers, N.Y.
