FOR some thirty-two years the C. L. Willey name hsis 

 been a by-word in circles having to do with the pro- 

 duction and utiHzation of high-grade hardwood lum- 

 ber and veneers, in establishing his business in Chicago 

 the late C. L. Willey planned an organization w^hich 

 soon became so thoroughly schooled in his methods 

 that through the expert executives, the highly trained 

 artisans and the complete and extensive manufacturing 

 facilities, the famous Willey standards of quality; true 

 merchandising service and of clean business ethics could 

 and will be permanently carried on. 



C. L. Willey's death and the subsequent death of his 

 son, Charles B. Willey, resulted in the reorganization 

 of last year, effected solely to provide machinery for 

 sustaining the acknowledged supremacy of the business 

 and to keep intact Mr. Willey's traditions of sound, 

 clean piactices. 



Through Mr. Willey's foresight and splendid ability to 

 train his organization in proper methods, the business is 

 proceeding today with the same regard for customers' 

 requirements and the same true ability to properly meet 

 those requirements as during the period of his active 

 supervision.

The remarkably complete and extensive cutting equip- 

 ment keeps the warehouse well stocked with the best 

 there is in both the stable products in domestic and 

 foreign woods as well as many exceptional species not 

 commonly on the market. The scrupulously neat and 

 orderly warehouses would prove a point of great in- 

 terest to any buyer who might now be or soon may be 

 in the market for such items as hardwood veneers and 

 lumber from walnut, mahogany, Circassian, quartered 

 oak, English oak, satinwood, vermilion, teak, rose- 

 wood and many other foreign and domestic items. 



Located at 2558 S. Robey Street, Chicago, the plant is 

 not only readily accessible but is splendidly served by 

 the C. B. & Q. Railway, and by its own slip on the 

 south fork of the Chicago river.
