New Zealand International Exhibition, Christchurch. [advertisement.] Those that wish to be Represented at the International Exhibition to be held in Christchurch in March next, should inform us of their intentions. We have been connected with all the International Exhibitions held in the Colonies. At the late Adelaide Exhibition we represented 60 exhibitors, fur which we received 10 Gold Medals, 49 first awards, and one second —three of which were New Zealand firms ; (1). Shang and J. T. Martin, Invercargill, and T. Bevan, Wellington.) Our plan is to represent the Exhibitors, transact their business, fix the Exhibits in their space, attend to the judging of Exhibits and anything necessary while the Exhibition remains open. At the close, repack, send Exhibits back thereof if required. It is very inconvenient for Exhibitors to come to the Exhibition, to fix their Exhibits, which amounts to an expense, besides the loss of time which must necessarily be expended on them. Then again, the Exhibitors have a benefit, they have no trouble of getting space, they let us know how much is required, and we get it for them, as we have a large amount granted us ; we fix, &., the Exhibits on a better space than if they applied themselves ; our terms are moderate. We specially caution the Public against giving their Exhibits to so-called Exhibition Agents, who go the rounds of the Exhibitions, and run Exhibitors into debt, and other difficulties. On account of our not being able to give Exhibitors the exact amount of our fee, as it is impossible to do so, until we know the size of Exhibit, they may rely on it being most reasonable. The Exhibits should be addressed to — ALBERT S. MANDERS A Co. Christchurch Exhibition. P.S.—Tf Exhibitors will kindly send a note staling how much space they require, no further trouble will be necessary. Albert S. Manders & Co., British A Colonial Manufacturers Agent. Head Office :—9l, Little Collins-street, East, Melbourne, and at London-street, Paul's Buildings, Adelaide. 67, King Williamstreet, Perth, W. A., and Town Hall. Permanent Branch in Christchurch after Ist of February. 289
