The text on the right is a transcription of the actual catalog ad wording. The number (in parentheses) in front of the Ad title is just the order the ad appears on the page, a (0) means the ad was not numbered on the page.

Some of the ads have an author's note. Those are my personal comments about the ad and may change as I learn more.
