PATENT IMPERISHABLE
Sansflectum Crinoline Manufacturer,Combining Durability and Lightness, with Elegance of Design,MODELLED FROM THE LATEST PARISIAN FASHION.
The following remarks in Reference to this Remarkable and Unique Crinoline from “The Morning Post,” of Oct. 10., are respectfully annexed for perusal by our Lady Patronesses:
“The most important, however, of all the improvements made in these universal articles of clothing is that of Mr. Mickelthwate’s in the Eastern Annexe, of which the Princess Alice is the patroness. They are made of very thin Steel Wire, covered with purified Gutta Percha, and are exceedingly light, elastic, and pliant; unlike most of the crinolines, the wire is not easily broken, while in the event of breakage, the outer covering effectually prevents those injuries from the protrusion of the broken end of the wires which have not unfrequently been inflicted upon the wearer. It was, we are informed, from a very serious accident of this sort occurring to an Austrian Lady that the attention of the exhibitor was first directed to some mode of covering the sharp steel wires of crinolines, and for his success he was rewarded with a Silver Medal by the Emperor of Austria. They are purchased by Thousands at the Exhibition, and the Inventor seems destined to add to the number of those who have made large fortunes out of the manufacture of the much abused, oft deprecated, but still universally worn crinolines.”“It is an American invention, combining lightness and durability, and is perfectly indestructible with ordinary wear. The material is the best Clock Spring Steel, coated with purified Gutta Percha, so highly refined that they have not the slightest unpleasant smell; they will bear a good squeeze without getting out of order. They may at all times be kept perfectly clean by means of a wet sponge. Although so light they keep their shape well, whether the dress worn with them is of a thin or heavy material.”—The Queen.

[0]The original book has no page numbers, is misbound in a number of places, and occasionally slots advertisements in the middle of the lists. As such I’ve moved most of the advertisements to the end of the eText, unless they occur between sections.—DP.
[1]The C. Collier advertisement, which is on the reverse of the inside cover of the original book, has been obscured by a bookplate and only the top and bottom of the advertisement are readable. It presumably is “Collier Caleb, silversmith, watch maker and jeweller, 209 Sloane st.”—DP.
[12]In the book there’s no heading for this advertisement—I’ve created one for readability.—DP.
[77]This page (beginning Ashby Joseph) is bound out of place in the original book. There it appears after the Pimlico Paper Warehouse advertisement page, and before the start of the Chelsea Trade Directory.—DP.
[78]This page (beginning Bennett Ann) is bound out of place in the original book. There it appears before the Brompton Consumption advertisement page, and before the start of the Chelsea Trade Directory.—DP.
[89]This page (beginning Johnson J. J.) and the following page (beginning Kineton John) are bound out of place, and occur before the page beginning Hayward William in the book.
[111]The part inside quotes has been rubbed out in the original book at Kensington. There appear to have been four words. Given other usages it may well be the name of a pub.—DP.
[123]The printer didn’t print the rest of the address in the original book.—DP.
[128]The printer didn’t print a proper address and left the line as shown. There was an Artillery Arms at 1 Rochester Row in the Post Office Directory for 1854.—DP.
[141]The printer has not printed an address in the original book, and the line is as transcribed.—DP.
