THEMAFirmendarstellung
TEXTPainters have in the early ages, as well as in later periods, caused their names to be in-scribed upon the scrolls of fame by the force of their own genius and superior works of art. Galleries for the exhibition and sale of these pictures have been opened wherever civilization extends, and among those most noted in New York is that of William Mead & Co. This celebrated business was establisbed in 1833, and continued at various points, and finally removed to present location during the current year. The store is simply elegant in the highest degree of finish as to show-cases, counters, etc. The stock of pictures is large and very tastefully arranged for exhibition. Mirror and picture-frames in great variety of style are always kept in stock. All orders for work will receive prompt attention. The firm employs only competent workmen. Both members of this firm are natives of New York, and Mr. Mead was engaged in the same business on the Bowery for a period of thirty-two years, and his long experience eminently qualifies him for the proper business care of a very extensive concern such as this has now become. The trade of this well known firm extends throughout the whole country, and their merit as a business house receives a general local acknowledgment which is proved by extensive home sales. The urbanity and politeness of these gentlemen, together with the superior quality of the goods they place on exhibition, has secured for them wide recognition and a very prosperous business.
