Abstract: "No. 12, a bagman or commercial traveller, a foppish 'cit' in riding-dress, holds out his book of patterns with a flourish to a stolid country draper (left), saying: "Fine Choice of Patterns Sir all the Rage in Town I hope you will give me an Order." The shopkeeper answers : "Yes I'll give thee an Order and that is to March out of my Shop for I dont like the looks O'thee". A counter with a shopman (right) rolling up material, bales of cloth on shelves, and two dogs, complete the design."--British Museum online catalogue
