Description

935 B Street, N. W.. Washington, D. C
The "Cumberland" Cucumber,
This variety is of the hardy White Spine type ; is a rapid, strong, and vigorous grower, and very prolific in
fruit. The pickles differ from all other hardy sorts in being thickly set with fine spines over the entire surface,
except the extreme stem end ; and during the whole period of growth, from the time they first set until fully
grown, the form is exceptionally straight and symmetrical, thus being as choice a slicing variety as it is for
pickles. The flesh is firm and crisp at all stages. We offer it in full confidence that it will please our customers
in every particular. Packet, 5c. Ounce, 15c. V pormd, 50c. ^ pound, 90c. Pound, $1.50. Stock is very limited.

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
