This small broadside promises satisfaction with high quality work from the engraving block of John DePol and the presswork of John Anderson at the Pickering Press, which combines DePol's engravings with Mother's Day, Father's Day or Valentine's Day greetings. According to this leaf, DePol's "fees are modest in view of the Great Care and Precision exersized and is work is ready, more often than not, when promised" and John Anderson's fees for his presswork "are equally modest, his deliveries are not quite so prompt." Illustrated with a wood engraving by DePol depicting an old-fashioned safe nearly, but not quite beaten into submission by a criminal, who is seated on a stool next to the safe, taking a lunch break.
