TEXTNearly half a century since (1836) this pioneer establishment was founded. At the present time it ranks, as it has ever done, at the head of the manufacturers of fine varnishes, japans, gold size, liquid dryer, hard-oil finish and hylopler, these goods having won a celebrity for the house among all consumers. The factory is one of the oldest of the landmarks ia its line of trade, and is a three-story brick building, 54x109 feet in extent, equipped with all the plant and machinery for the trade and operated by a steam engine of twenty-five-horse power. The firm manufacture a number of the finest varnishes for coach and carriagemakers, furniture varnishes and for paper hangings; polishing varnish for pianos and fine furniture a specialty, and Fitzgerald's hard-oil finish, a substitute for shellac. The stock carried will reach a value of $40,000. The trade done is one of the most extensive and covers the best portion of the United States, Canadas and Europe, the sales being estimated at 75,000 to 100,000 per annum. The firm is composed of John D. Fitzgerald, a native of the State of New York, and A. O. Fitzgerald, a native of the city of Newark.
