Whilst researching through old newspapers and magazines, we often come across extremely interesting pieces of historical ephemera. In this case, an advertisement to dispose (sell) a prize-winning Abyssinian breeding queen, in kitten to a named stud. The advert mentions four Abyssinians by name.
This is taken from the breeders listings in Our Cats from an issue dating in 1903. Photo courtesy of The Harrison Weir Collection.
