THEMAFirmendarstellung
TEXTThe furniture trade of New York, like every other staple branch of commerce, comprises every class of dealer with corresponding ratios of value and excellence. As in everything else, so in furniture, it always pays to get the best. An establishment which stands in the van of the choicest line of the furniture trade is that of Mr. James B. McNab, No. 747 Broadway. The business was founded by the late George A. Clarke, to whom Mr. McNab succeeded in 1882. Mr. Clarke commenced business as far back as 1863, and from the first made it his aim to keep none but the best and most artistic goods. He met with a most gratifying response from an appreciative public, and built up one of the largest and most representative businesses of the kind in the city. Mr. McNab, his successor, is a gentleman of vast practical experience in the trade, and is possessed of unerring judgment and superior executive abilities. His establishment occupies three full floors of No. 747 Broadway, and contains one of the most extensive, as it is one of th& freshest and most elegant, stocks of fine furniture and. carpets in the metropolis. Mr. McNab manifests an ultimate knowledge of the wants of the public, and has kept; most thoroughly up to the demands made upon his house. All of the newest designs in parlor, chamber, dining-room and kitchen furniture are included in his stock; his par-' lor sets are obtainable in all the fresh styles of upholstery; his carpets include the choicest patterns in Axmin-sters, velvets, body Brussels, tapestries, three-ply ingrains,, etc. Various patterns of oil-cloths, bedding in profusion, etc., can be found here, and all goods are quoted at astonishingly low prices. Mr. McNab deals with the best classes of our citizens, and makes a specialty of completely furnishing all sizes of houses and flats. Estimates are promptly furnished, and the terms are of the most liberal character, presenting to all an opportunity of obtaining what they want for housekeeping. The prompt, upright and reliable character of all Mr. McNab's dealings, and the superior quality of his furniture, have secured to him the representative position he now holds, and which renders his establishment a specially interesting feature of metropolitan activity and enterprise.
