| THEMA | Firmendarstellung |
| TEXT | A prominent house engaged in this trade is that of Messrs. Andrew Lester & Co., which was established originally as far back as 1844, and was eventually removed to its present eligible location in 1882. The premises occupied are very commodious and spacious, and are fully stocked with all the leading novelties in carpetings and seasonable designs in velvets and Brussels, choice ingrains, druggets and art squares, oil-cloths, China, cocoa and Napier mattings, blankets, robes, burlaps, canvas, etc. In these goods the firm carries an extensive assortment, received direct from the most famous manufacturers, and shows an ample selection of all the standard designs, and new shades and colors, a trade being consummated that extends throughout New York and New England. The products of the looms of to-day are works of art, and they are no longer confined to the homes of the opulent, the economy of steam manufacture placing them within the reach of all classes of the community. Popular prices prevail in this establishment, and the members of the firm being thoroughly practical men, exercise their personal supervision over every department, affording thus a guarantee that no goods shall leave the establishment otherwise than in perfect order. |
