This Man Used Le Page's Liquid Glue in the Wrong Place

This Man Used Le Page's Liquid Glue in the Wrong Place
"This man used Le Page's Liquid Glue in the wrong place. Unequaled for repairing wood, leather, glass, ivory, china, jewelry, metals, &c. Sold in bottles and in cans. No loafers allowed here. Hold on! It's no use pullin' I'm stuck with Le Page's Glue. Awarded gold medal, London, 1883. Forbes Co. Lith."

A Victorian-era advertising trade card that humorously illustrates the consequences of misusing Le Page's Liquid Glue.
