THEMABeschreibung
TEXTAbout the first definite idea which enters the mind of a visitor to this important establishment is that it is evidently in the hands of a practical and experienced business man. One feels that here he may ask a question relative to the business of the house with a reasonable hope of receiving an answer from one competent to give it. The business was established in 1839 by William B. Davey and passed into the hands of the present proprietor in 1865. It is the first house in this line of trade established in New Jersey, and commands a larger trade than that of any other house of its kind throughout the States. Goods are shipped to all sections of the United States and Canada and orders have been filled for foreign countries. A capital of 25,000 is invested, which yields an annual return of 60,000. All varieties of heavy pasteboards used in binding books, manufacturing trunks, etc., are made. Three very large buildings, besides a mill and various annexes, comprise the establishment, which covers an area of thirteen acres. A large number of skilled workmen are employed, the pay-roll reaching a large amount. The machinery is heavy and complete, and water and steam are both utilized as motive power. A steam engine of thirty-horse power and two boilers are used, and forty-horse water power is also required. Mr. E. H. Davey was born in Bloomfield, where he has always resided, and of which he is one of the most honored and useful citizens. The works are under the management of Mr. J. M. Van Winkle, a native of Essex County, who has acquired an enviable reputation for the manly and straightforward manner in which he conducts the business. The works are located in what is known as Third River, in the northern part of Bloomfield.
