<strong>Catalogue</strong> of Proprietary Lines [wrapper title]. Adelaide, D. and<br />
J. Fowler: November, 1915. Tall octavo, pp. 32, “Alterations in<br />

An extensive catalogue of foodstuffs, ointments, and the like for people<br />
and livestock. D. and J. Fowler Ltd. was established by David and James<br />
Fowler in 1854. The business was originally a retail outlet in King William<br />
Street, Adelaide, but it soon expanded to a wholesale business with a<br />
variety of interests. The company became one of Australia’s largest<br />
wholesale grocers involved in diverse areas such as milling, tea, and<br />
bottling – Fowler’s Vacola bottling process is nostalgically familiar to<br />
generations of Australians and continues today.
