Description

Specialty foods for Thanksgiving and Christmas are described along with other imported and domestic foods and liquors. Products from Adolph Röder in Wiesbaden, Germany are available from Pierce. A note inside the front cover states that the business has been located at Tremont and Court Streets since October 1831. The removal of the old building and construction of a new building has required the temporary relocation to Washington Street.
