| TEXT | A name long prominently identified with the mercantile progress of the metropolis is that of "Burke, the Hatter". It is now twenty-three years since he first founded his business, and during the intervening period he has built up not only an unrivalled reputation for enterprise and strict integrity, but also for his skill and excellent taste and judgment as a metropolitan hatter and furrier. Mr. Burke is possessed of vast practical experience, and has always been identified with the best classes of trade. He first established in 1861 at the corner of Fulton Street and Broadway, subsequently, eleven years ago, removing to his eligible stand in the Park Bank building. Here is always to be found one of the finest stocks of hats for gentlemen's wear in the city. Mr. Burke has acquired a very exalted position in the trade, he having much to do with directing the correct styles each season, his hats being universally recognized as among the best sold. In this establishment are to be found the latest correct styles or silk and beaver hats and derbies, and in summer a magnificent assortment of Mackinaw and other reliable makes of straw hats. In the line of furs, the same high reputation attends Mr. Burke's trade as in that of hats. He always has on hand a complete assortment in sizes of the finest quality of sealskin sacques and cloaks, muffs, caps, and gauntlets, and in which the quality of the sealskin is in all cases warranted, while the prices are admittedly the lowest quotable for goods of such a superior character. In mink, marten beaver, chinchilla, sable and all other fashionable furs, Mr. Burke is always prepared to give the same entire satisfaction. Mr. Burke is an esteemed native of New York, one of its oldest established business men, and a representative manufacturer and dealer in fashionable hats and furs. |
