Dunlap 4 Co., N. Y.-Fine Hats
Demand for mems head gear is al
ways an unfailing sign Of the times,
especially when this demand reaches
into all the higher grades. Such is
now the case. Messrs. l.. Dunlap y
Co., the celebrated hatters Of New
York city, and who turn out more fpe
hats than any half dozen OF other
manufacturer, are over-run with orders,
and are unable to keep up with the
demand, though working full forces on
full time. Messrs. Dunlap & Co. are
the only makers in their lines of goods
who manufacture fine silk, opera, felt
and straw hats, all at one establish
meut and under the same management.
1t is now more than 20 years since
the firm put its first makes on the New
York market. To-day its only market
Is the world. They are represented
by leading hatters as agerts in every
city. It's trade mark can be seen
wherever fine hats are used, and every
where tley are accepted as standards
in quality, finish and style. Only the
fne,t grades OF goods are mapufacturi
ed, and there is never any sacrifice OF
quality to cheapness, under any in,
dU ,nents. New customers are treat
ed as well as old, and there can be the
fullest reliance on the filing Of
all orders as promised. All stocks are

A dealer, who buys judiciously, can
scarcely carry over any Of the Dunlap
makes. Both reputation and straight
merit sell thegoods, and they are safe
for even inexperienced or new dealers to
handle. Daring the Exposition OF 1875,
when the goods of the old "crack"
manufacturers OF France and England,
who at one time controlled the markets
of this country, were represented, the
superiority of the makes of Messrs. r
Dur zap < Co. wPs SO clearly shown
taat practical competition was out of
the question. The day for foreign
goods in this line has eone by forever.
Aweiie u skill leads the world in every
industry undertaken, and the factIre
Of fine hats is no exception to the rule.
This highness of grade is not con-
anqd to any variety or class Of goods
made by the Dunlap firm, but extends
through all its lines. The reputation
obtsined for these celebrated hats,
throughout the uuited States, by their
uniform quality (being the production
OF the best workmanship carefully su-
pervised and none but the best mate
rials used) has naturally tempted uD-
dealers to trade upon their
name and reputation: We therefore de-
sire to call the attention Of purchasers
to this fact SO that they will see that
the hat they buy has the name and trade
mark of the firm stamped inside Of the
hat, as no other is genuine.
The patrous of the Dunlap hat" can
be assured that all hats sold by au-
thorized agents and bearing their name
and trade mark are identically the
same in style, quality and price as sold
by them in their own retail stores, and
all agents are required to adhere strict
ly to the New York prices, go gentle.
man can purchase Dunlap hat in any
city in the Union at the same price as
if purchased OF the firm in New York.
The present force employed in the
factory numbers over 200, all skilled
wOrAmen, all goods carefully inspected
and none allowed to pass into the mar
ket unless perfect.
