HAVE A MODERN PRINTRRY
Kramer x Co. Expand and Improve to
Meet Demands of Growing Business.


Meet Demands of GrOwIug Business.
When Kramer Il Co. shall have COM
pleted improvements now in progress
at their establishment at 1905 Second
avenue they will have as complete a
printery and bindery as can be found
in any city in the west. From small
beginning the concern has grown to
such proportions that it is now not
only doing the greater portion of the
work in it's line in Rock Island, but
commands an extensive trade from
surrounding towns.
The business was established in
1885 as Kramer & Bleuer. In 1898
Mr.. Bleuer retired and the firm name
changed to Kramer & Co., the men,
bers of which are Henry Kramer and
Charles Kramer, the former, in
capacity of manager, being in
large measure, through his bust
ness tact aud knowledge of the
public wants. responsible for the
rapid growth OF the concerns trade
During the past summer it was found
more room was needed tt accommo-
date the increased facilities. The
firm had been getting along with two
floors, but the crowded condition
made it necessary to secure the third
floor, to W hich the bindery has since
been moved, having formerly been
operated on the first floor, which will
henceforth be given over entirely to
the office and press room. The COM
posing room occupies the entire sec
ond floor. Among the improvements
is freight and passenger elevator.
The press room will be separated from
the office by partition and the whole
establishment will be renovated and
frightened. During the coming year
q new plate glass front will be in
stalled.
The remodelling process has de-
layed the firm somewhat in turning
out it's work, but Manager Kramer
assures his patrons everything will be
running smoothly again in few

delivered with the dispatch that has
