Wherever known the GROVER & BAKERS Sewing
Machine is acknowledged to be superior to all Others
They require rewinding of thread; are more sim
pie and more easily managed than any other; always
ready for work, and do varieties of work which no
other machine pretends to do.
We speak from experience when we say that after
having tried all the principal sewing machines we
must accord to that of Grover u Baker the pre-
eminence. Those indispensable features of sewing
strength uniformity and elasticty-all of which are
brought out in this incompatible invention make it
the first sewing machine in the country.-Nelo York
