THEMAFirmendarstellung
TEXTThe fur trade of New York has long been distinguished for enterprise, and the extensive nature of the business thus carried on. and in this connection we desire to call attention to the great establishment of Mr. Charles Altman, which is in every respect a model, as it is one of the representative concerns in the trade. Mr. Altaian is a gentleman of vast practical experience in all departments of the manufacture of flue furs, and established his present house in 1870, first locating in Broome Street, removing thence to Bond Street, and on January 1. 1884, removing to his present eligible and commodious premises in the white marble building No. 645 Broadway, and which are directly central in the best section of the great thoroughfare. Here he occupies four floors. The first being elegantly fitted up and devoted to the uses of his office and salesroom, while his work-rooms, stock room, etc., are situated on the floors above. Mr. Altman has direct connections with the leading European fur houses, and is thus enabled to import to America the very choicest seal skins, etc.. and which, when care and elegantly made up by his skilful workmen under his talented supervision, are admittedly the finest garments yet shown to the trade, and are general favorites. Mr. Altman manifests the greatest possible care in his manufacturing department, and his experience, coupled with his excellent judgment, enables him annually to outstrip his competitors and place on the market the very choicest lines of seal-skin sacques, dolmans and ulsters, which sell to the best class of trade all over the country, from Maine to California. He also manufactures full lines of caps, gloves and furriers' trimmings, and gives employment to an average of one hundred hands, keeping four salesmen on the road, and doing a business of corresponding magnitude. He is a wry popular importer and manufacturer, noted for his honorable business methods and sterling integrity, and is a valued factor in the commercial prosperity of the great metropolis, worthy of record in this historical review.
