THEMAFirmendarstellung
TEXTIf there is one thing of more importance than all others in the affairs of commerce, it is the evenness of balance and reliability of the scales used for weighing commodities. Therefore an establishment devoted to the most vital and necessary instruments used in the prosecution of trade should receive significant notice in this review of the industries of New York. In this connection the attention of our readers is directed to the house of Messrs. Robidoux & Son, the New York Journeymen Scale Makers' Company, No. 102 John Street, which was established originally in 1848, and since its inception at that period has built up a large and prosperous trade. The house makes a specialty of standard scales and weighmasters' tools, which are unsurpassed for exactness and durability by those of any other contemporary concern. The scales made by this firm comprise every kind of weighing machine from the most delicate balance up to the ponderous machine of several hundred tons, and are adapted to the standard of all trades and of every business on the face of the globe. The system which prevails in the entire establishment indicates the most careful supervision, while the judgment and ability displayed in the manufacture of the stock proclaim the proprietors to be thoroughly experienced and acquainted with the wants of their numerous customers. Scales, of every description are repaired and put in perfect working order, and tested with United States standard weights. The individual members of this co-partnership are Messrs. Joseph and W. H. Robidoux, who are greatly respected by the community as honorable business men and upright private citizens.
