THEMAFirmendarstellung
TEXTNo line of manufacture shows more marked advancement in the last quarter of a century than carriage building, and the ponderous, cumbersome vehicles which were the pride of our grandfathers would now be regarded as monstrosities. Among manufacturers engaged in this line of business in New York who have gained prominence based on the merits of their productions, none stand higher than Messrs. A. T. Demarest & Co., Nos. 636 and 638 Broadway, who make carriages equal in style, finish, and quality to any contemporary concern either in this country or in Europe. This enterprise was established in this city in 1860, the factories being located at New Haven, Connecticut, and since the inception of the business Messrs. Demarest and Co. have obtained an influential and liberal patronage from all parts of the United States and Canada, their goods likewise being exported to England, France, Germany and Russia. The works at New Haven are very complete, and consist of a magnificent series of buildings, admirably arranged and equipped with all the latest machinery and appliances for the manufacture of carriages, light wagons, sleighs, etc., employment being provided for three hundred skilled and experienced artisans. Only the best materials are utilized, carefully selected and well seasoned, and from the very commencement this house determined to employ only thoroughly qualified workmen, and the result is that the carriages and phaetons turned out are absolutely unexcelled for durability, beauty and general excellence. The firm have occupied their present warerooms for over twenty years, and they are unquestionably the finest devoted to the purpose in this city. Those who enter into business relations with this house may be assured of receiving not only just and liberal treatment, but likewise of obtaining manifest advantages in terms and prices. Those who want a cheap carriage will not find it here, but customers requiring a good one at a reasonable price cannot do better than give their orders to this establishment. A visit to the splendid ware-room of the firm in Broadway will satisfy purchasers and their friends that the productions of this house are without a rival, and justly merit the commendations bestowed upon them.
