| TEXT | "Eureka" stained glass consists of sheets of very thin, transparent felted paper, upon which opaque sash lines, and the most brilliant oil colors are introduced, and rendering it the most perfect substitute for stained glass ever devised, producing as it does all the rich, pleasing effects of the most expensive stained glass at such a remarkably low price that every one can now afford to adorn their homes with this truly wonderful discovery in fine art. When properly applied it is fully equal in brill-ancy to the richest stained glass that costs from six dollars to ten dollars per square foot, while the "Eureka" only costs seventy-five cents per square foot, applied and all complete. It is made in all desirable patterns, including centres, borders, corners, and sections for filling in between corners and borders, for which plain to the most elaborate patterns may be designed. It is equally desiraable, and is in use all over, for the decoration of church windows, society and other halls, store-fronts, vestibule doors, transoms, back-parlor windows, chamber and bath-room windows, domes and skylights. It is especially appreciated by merchants as a suitable and attractive decoration for the upper part of their show windows, and makes a magnificent display in many of the finest stores in New York and Brooklyn and vicinity. It can be easily applied by any one, and to old and new sash of any shape or size, without removal. It can he washed with warm or cold water, and steam, heat, or frost will never affect it Mr. Seib has numbers of customers from all over the country, as well as in New York and Brooklyn, who apply it easily and satisfactorily, but he is at all times ready not only to furnish original designs, but send skilled workmen to apply it. It is the most popular decoration in existence, and during the past year, there have been forty thousand square feet of the "Eureka" applied by his workmen in New York and Brooklyn alone. It received the award of medal at the American Institute Exhibition in Decem-ber, 1882, and it has never failed to give entire satisfac-tion. The manufacture of the Eureka stained glass was commenced about three years ago by Messrs. F. M. Johnson & Co., to whom Mr. C. L. Seib has succeeded, and whose offices and salesrooms are very centrally located in the Domestic Building, comer of Broadway and 14th Street. It is in thousands of the houses of the best people, and in such representative establishments as those of George Castor & Co., Keep Mfg. Co., Great Am. Clothing Co., Atlantic and Pacific Tea Co., St. Omer's Hotel, Hotel vendome, Bloomingdale Reformed Church, C. Simis, hat-ter, Byn. Central Baptist Church, Brighton Beach Hotel, the Ocean Mansion and West End hotels at Long Branch, the United States, Congress Hall and Columbian hotels at Saratoga, and hundreds of others. |
