Excerpt from Catalogue and Price List of Presses, Drop Hammers, Shears, Dies and Special Machinery We take pleasure in placing in the hands of our customers our Catalogue of1894, illustrating some of the machines and tools for sheet metal and other work manufactured by us. Our constant aim in the past has been to supply the most perfect sheet metal working machinery, and in the future neither effort nor expense will be spared in maintaining this policy, which has met with such liberal support from manufacturers. We have been for many years the leading manufacturers in this line in the United States, and our domestic trade has been supplemented by such a large and constantly increasing demand from abroad that our machines may now be found in almost every country on the globe. During the last few years we have more than doubled the extent of our Brooklyn works. The machine shops now cover an entire city block, with buildings four and six stories high. We have also largely increased our facilities by the introduction of new machinery, electric traveling cranes, etc., and are better prepared than ever for meeting the require ments of the trade. In December, 1890, we amalgamated with our business that of The Stiles and Parker Press C0. (middletown, who have for many years upheld a reputation second to none, for the peculiar excellence of their presses, drop hammers and special machinery. We are now in a position to offer our customers the combined pat-terns, facilities and experience of the two largest and oldest establishments in this line. On the. Two following pages we give a list of some of the principal classes of machinery made by us, and of some of the articles for which they are specially adapted. Our Foundry Department, which occupies separate buildings, has also been largely extended. It is fully equipped with steam cranes, elevators, and other appliances for making a superior quality of heavy castings in green sand, dry sand, and loam, for all purposes. We solicit patronage in this department. We wish to assure our friends, both in the United States and abroad, that we shall endeavor to merit the same confidence in the future with which we have been favored so liberally in the past, and that their commands and inquiries shall have our prompt and careful attention.
