THEMAFirmendarstellung
TEXTIt is only when making a careful review of each individual establishment engaged in promoting the commercial interests of the city that one is forcibly struck with the magnitude, importance, and success of many enterprises which appear very small to the superficial observer. An illustration of this statement is the well-known house of Messrs. L. D. Brown & Son, manufacturers of machine-twist and sewing-silk, which was established in 1850. The factory is located at Middletown, Conn., and is fully equipped with all the most improved machinery and appliances, employment being given to about two hundred skilled and experienced operatives. Not many years ago all goods of this character were imported from Europe, but latterly, in consequence of the skill, energy, and enterprise of our manufacturers, the productions of our looms are quite equal to those of France and Great Britain. Seeing the importance and value of a representation in New York City, warerooms and offices were established in the metropolis at No. 486 Broadway. The firm likewise possesses a branch establishment at No. 27 Lincoln Street, Boston. The manufacturing processes have been brought to the highest perfection, and the most minute details are observed in the production of the twist and silk. Particular attention has been also given to correctness of measurement, and customers will always find that the spools contain the full length as represented. The machine-twist and sewing-silk manufactured by Messrs. L. D. Brown & Son is designed especially for the clothing and boot and shoe trades, and can safely challenge comparison with any similar article in thte country or Europe. The policy upon which the business is carried on is characterized by liberality and the careful fostering of the interests of all patrons, so that transactions once begun with this house may be made not only pleasant for the time being, but of such a nature that they shall become permanent.
