| TEXT | Some idea of the extent to which clothing is manufactured in Newark may be gathered from the fact that 50,000 pairs of pantaloons are made here every week in the year, one firm making as high as 1,500 pairs weekly. These goods supply the houses of New York city principally, although some trade is done with Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and the houses of this city. Thus it will be seen that this department of industry is an important one, employing thousands of hands and bringing hundreds of thousands of dollars annually to the city in wages. While this relates more particularly to the readymade trade, yet the custom business is an immense one and annually grows greater. A leading house engaged exclusively in the custom business is that of A. Loewenthal, Newark's popular business tailor, at No. 168 Market Street. The fine store is 25x50 feet in size, fitted up in modern style and stocked with the best and most desirable of piece goods, such as cassimeres, cloths, vestings, suitings, etc. The newest patterns and most attractive styles are always in stock as soon as put upon the market, and well- fitting, stylishly cut, and substantially made garments are supplied at the shortest notice at New York city prices. Measures are taken and all kinds of clothing are made for both men and boys. Employment is given to from twelve to fifteen hands. Mr. Loewenthal is a native of Germany but has long resided in this country. |
