THE SIGN OF SERVICE
WHEN YOU NEED YOUR WINTER CLOTHES, IF YOU DID NOT USE
OUR MOTH-PROOF BAGS.
One morning you will say "Brhh! a bit chilly-think I'll wear my Tweed Sult!" But is it really in fit condition for wear? It would be wise to have a look at it now, and if it is creased or soiled-let us call for it and smarten it up. Then you will have it back all ready for the first chilly day that comes along. Even if it is a bit shabby we can make it .look good again. Our cleaning processes are very thorough and include the removal of all spots, and stains wheraver possible. Every garment treated is carefully pressed and reshaped.
