For those interested:

The ad is from Atlanta, but the "Old Well" model is named for the Old Well at Chapel Hill, where there was another Milton's store:

Milton's was a well known fixture in Chapel Hill, right across from Julian's, owned by his brother, Mr. Maurice. Julian's was the high end store, Milton's was where scholarship students such as myself could afford to shop. Styles were "eclectic", as I think he bid on job lots of what was available.

Mr. Milton was the father of Alexander Julian

I stand corrected, Alexander is Maurices son. Been a long time since I was there.
