This 1929 seed and bulb catalog from Chester Jay Hunt Inc. of Little Falls, New Jersey presents comprehensive listings of flower seeds organized by plant type. Featured prominently are extensive sections on annuals, with detailed descriptions of snapdragons (antirrhinums) in tall, intermediate, and dwarf varieties; asters in multiple strains including New Large-Flowered Double, Crego Comet, Late Branching, and Single types; and numerous other annual flowers including calendula, candytuft, celosia, centaurea, chrysanthemum, and clarkia. Each entry provides botanical names, color descriptions, growth heights, and packet prices ranging from 15 to 40 cents. The catalog emphasizes English flower-seed strains and includes cultivation advice for sowing seeds, with a guarantee of replacement for non-germinating seeds. A separate section covers gladiolus bulbs. The material reflects standard horticultural and commercial seed-selling practices of the period.
Each page has its own page — the cartoon, who’s in it, and what the satire means.
