| TEXT | A distinguishing characteristic of the American people is the omnipresent spirit of enterprise that prevails in every vocation and individual, the reward of which is always obtained in the successful result. As an instance of this enterprise we would cite the firm of A. N. Baldwin & Son, general machinists, whose neat and commodious shops are advantageously located upon Bloomfield Avenue. The establishment is one of the oldest, if not the oldest, in the vicinity, having been established in 1827 by Mr. A. N. Baldwin, the senior member of the present firm. It has thus been in existence for fifty-five years, which fact in itself is a sufficient voucher for the manner in which it has been conducted. Mr. John N. Baldwin, the junior member of the firm, was admitted to the partnership in 1869, and since that time has been an able and efficient assistant. In 1873 the establishment was destroyed by fire, but was immediately rebuilt, and a handsome brick building, 53x75 feet, is now occupied. Over $15,000 is invested in the business. A goodly number of skilled workmen, besides the members of the firm, are constantly employed. The machinery is full and complete, and is driven by an engine of fifteen-horse power. Messrs. Baldwin are both natives of New Jersey and life-long residents of the State. They are practical, general machinists, wood turners, wagon makers, etc., and are well supplied with and manufacturers of lathes, planers, wire-drawing and planing machines, etc. They are also manufacturers of and dealers in wrought iron pipe and fitting, lag screws and bolts, etc., a large number of all sizes and kinds of which are constantly on hand and made to order. The gentlemen are conscientious business men, well deserving the success which has attended their business enterprise. |
