The prices given are for machines dressed slates in various sizes (ranging from 24’’ x 14’’ to 10’’ x 8’’), and of various quality (‘best old vein’, ‘medium old vein’, and ‘second quality’ slates). Included with the price list is an additional price list for ‘back vein slates’, ranging in size from 24’’ x 14’’ to 10’’ x 8’’.
