THEMAFirmendarstellung
TEXTIn its line there is no more active and enterprising house in New York City than that of Messrs. Stone & Firth, the widely known and popular importers of fine tailors' trimmings. The business was founded by them in 1878, in this street, and has had a continuous and prosperous career to date, the firm extending its trade to every section of the United States, and manifesting that degree of watchfulness and ability so agreeable to the best interests of their permanent customers. Messrs. Stone & Firth have occupied their present fine store for the last two years. It is thirty feet by one hundred in dimensions, and contains without question the freshest and best assorted stock of fine tailors' trimmings in the country. The proprietors are both possessed of ample practical experience, and an intimate knowledge of the wants of the trade. Their facilities and connections in the European markets are of the most superior character, enabling them to promptly import the choicest novelties of every description. They hold the leading trade throughout the Middle and Eastern States, and some idea of its magnitude may be gathered when we state that they require the services of a force of seven men on the road, and are kept busy filling shipping orders. The co-partners, Mr. J. H. Stone and Mr. L. W. Firth, are both natives of the State of New York, and are talented and capable business men, noted for their honorable methods and sterling integrity, whose merits are generally recognized in our commercial circles, and whose establishment is in every sense of the word a permanent source of credit, both to themselves and to the great city in which it is so eligibly located.
