THEMAFirmendarstellung
TEXTThe printing of cassimeres and woollen goods is an industry that is of very considerable importance in this city. The aim is to take a cheap quality of plain goods and by printing a pattern on them give them a handsomer and more elegant appearance. In but a few of the establishments in this city is this carried to such perfect success as in the Emplre'Print Works. They are located at No. 373 Washington Street. The proprietors are Messrs. Worthen & Aldrich. They occupy a commodious building five stories in height. It is fitted with new and improved printing machinery'and a steam-engine of some forty horse-power furnishes the means of propelling this enormous amount of machinery. They furnish goods for some of our largest woollen mills and jobbers, and always have employed from forty to fifty hands according to the demand for their work. The goods after being finished by them are shipped to all parts of the United States. The firm are represented in this establishment by Mr. Hubert F. Stevens as manager. Mr. Stevens is thoroughly conversant with every detail of this work, and under his able guidance the business is conducted with great satisfaction to all.
