| THEMA | Beschreibung |
| TEXT | This house, with a national reputation, is of a representative class and merits a more extended description than our limited space will permit. Founded in 1864 by Foerster & Kraeuter, it was not until 1879 that Mr. Foerster became the sole proprietor. He has since conducted the business in a highly successful mann£r and gained an enviable reputation both at home and abroad for the character of his manufactures. These comprise a general line of hardware and mechanics' tools, curling tongs and irons, fluting scissors, pinking machines and irons, sardine and champagne knives, oyster knives, cigar-box openers, spring and eyelet punches, conductors' punches, belt and buttonhole punches, gas plyers, plumbers' tools, box scapers and chisels, saw sets and washer cutters, dividers and compasses, calipers of all descriptions, hammers of all kinds, carpet vises and stretchers, shears and presses, etc. Two floors of the Hedenberg Works are occupied, which are amply equipped with all the necessary machinery adapted to the work in hand and operated by steam power. Employment is given to thirty skilled workmen and the trade extends throughout the United States, Canadas, and a considerable export trade. Mr. Foerster is a native of Germany, coming to this country when quite young, and has made Newark his home for the past thirtysix years. He has a thoroughly practical knowledge of the business, is a very expert and skillful workman, and learned his trade with Henry Sauerbier in this city. All work here turned out is still under his personal supervision and the utmost care is exercised in its manufacture and finish. The goods are manufactured from the best of materials and are especially salable and attractive in general style, finish, and durability, and unexcelled by any similar house in the world. |
