| THEMA | Firmendarstellung |
| TEXT | No one article of attire is so essential to elegance and beauty of figure in the fair sex as a well made and neat fitting corset that likewise is comfortable and easy to wear. In the line of corsets everything depends upon the manufacturers, and it is only firms of long experience and exceptionable responsibility and skill that>pro-duce corsets combining all the requirements which a lady desires in this indispensable article of dress, A justly celebrated house in the line of corsets is that of Messrs. Lewis Schiele & Co., of No. 390 Broadway. The business carried on by them was originally founded in 1S57, and the present co-partnership was formed in 18C3. The concern is in every respect one of the most representative in the line of the importation and manufacture of corsets in America. The co-partners are Mr. L. Schiele and Mr. S. Gutman, the latter gentleman being the resident New York partner, while Mr. Schiele is at the head of the firm's immense manufactories in Europe. Up to about ten years ago, the firm were among the largest importers of fine wove corsets in this country, but since then have devoted themselves more especially to the domestic manufacture of the finest sewed corsets. Their immense factory, so widely known under the title of the "American Corset Works," is eligibly located in New Haven, Conn., where the firm carries on the business upon a most extensive scale, employing as high as six hundred hands, and turning out annually a correspondingly large quantity of goods. They have two European factories, located respectively at Goeppingen and Wurtemberg, which are of large capacity. The firm import the best wove corsets of their own manufacture, and are prominent producers of the most reliable sewed corsets. They are sole owners and manufacturers of the celebrated Madame Dean's Spinal Supporting Corset for misses and children, patented March 20, 1883. These corsets are specially constructed with two curved springs so as to fit exactly on and support the shoulder blades, and another spring to support the spine, both made of the very finest and best tempered clock-spring, thus creating a complete support for the spine, sure to prevent or cure, where necessary, round shoulders or stooping habits and spinal diseases in almost every form. Following are some of the merits of this corset: First, they give perfect support to the spine and relieve the muscles of the back; second, they brace the shoulders in a natural and easy manner, imparting graceful carriage to the wearer, without the infliction of any sense of discomfort or restraint; third, they are a comfortable and elegantly fitting corset, and fulfil every purpose of the ordinary corset to perfection, suitable to be worn in the drawing-room, for full-dress purposes, as well as at the writing-desk and sewing machine; fourth, they are made of fine coutil, finished in the best manner, and are in every respect equal to any corset of their kind, whether domestic or imported, while their price is not higher than charged for ordinary corsets of similar quality. Their goods are generally recog nized for their uniform high standard of excellence, and the superiority of their goods over all others in the market is abundantly shown by the fact of their steady and rapidly increasing popularity since their first introduction. They are a thoroughly reliable, honorable house, noted for the fact that their corsets are all carefully made of the best materials, and are all sewed, stayed and finished in the neatest and most satisfactory manner. Their New York salesrooms could not be more eligibly and centrally located than they are, and here can be seen a magnificent stock for buyers to select from all fresh, reliable goods at attractive prices. Mr. Gutman is a respected and popular member of New York's commercial circles, and as a manufacturer has developed large industrial interests in this country, while his house stands high as regards commercial stability, and the un-deviating excellence of all the goods it handles. |
