Leaflet advertising bargains in boots & shoes at Pocock Bros.' great opening sale, 30, Atlantic Road, Brixton, London. Probably in the late 1890s. The illustrated side is of a smartly dressed man with a large moustache sitting on a wooden chair, a steaming footbath below him (for sore feet). By inserting fingers through the 2 holes, it creates the effect of his legs.
