WINSOR AND NEWTON,

"THE NORTH LONDON COLOUR WORKS,"

KENTISH TOWN.

WINSOR and NEWTON solicit the especial attention of Amateurs,
Artists, Architects, Engineers, Surveyors, &c, to their Drawing Pen-
cils, which are manufactured of the purest Cumberland Lead, warranted
to be perfectly free from grit.

These Pencils are unrivalled for depth, uniformity, richness of
colour, firmness, and delicacy of tint; they are remarkable for the
varieties of hardness and evenness of texture, their ready and complete
erasure, and the truth and certainty to which they are made to answer to
the degree or letter marked on them, from the HHHH. Pencil for Architect
or Wood Engraver's outline, to the BBBB. for the broadest and deepest
tones required in Pencil-Drawing.
