To all Makers, Stampers, and Buyers of Stocking and Cloth
A broadside from 1st December 1742 by Andrew Logie, Dean of Guild of Aberdeen. The announcement addresses the makers, stampers, and buyers of stocking and cloth. The manufacturers are warned of the increased strictness of the regulations regarding the production and sale of textiles.

In this sense, this broadside resembles the one emanated by the then Dean of the Guild William Fordyce in 1738. In this later notice, however, the Laws are clearly stated one by one, perhaps a sign that there were still many manufacturers failing to respect them.
