Furniture Catalogue from 'The Home Makers'. Hooper's [sic] Furnishing Arcade, Limited, Hindley & Leigh Streets, Adelaide ... [cover title]

Adelaide, Printed by Vardon & Sons [for Hooper's], [circa 1926] (22 April 1926 is the date on the most recent testimonial letter quoted on the inside rear wrapper).

Oblong folio, 130, [2] (detachable mail order form) pages with hundreds of illustrations (the first 8 pages printed in two colours) plus text on the inside surfaces of the covers.

Colour pictorial wrappers lightly creased and rubbed at the extremities, with a few short tears to the rear wrapper expertly sealed; an excellent copy.

Loosely inserted are four illustrated leaves (210 x 280 mm) advertising furniture from a local competitor, Hains Hunkin, Adelaide; they appear to be separately-issued supplementary leaves to a catalogue similar to this one. The only copy of any trade catalogue from Hoopers Limited ('Established 1866') located in Trove is in the State Library of South Australia. It is listed as having 126 pages, and dated '1925?'; it may or may not be an example of this item.
