204 DEERE IMPLEMENT COMPANY. 



" Deere Implement Co. Buggies." 



GRADES. 



In these we build but two, the "Golden Gate" and the "Pacific," as per descriptions 



below. 



Description of Golden Gate Grade: 



GEARS. Best selected, thoroughly seasoned hickory; hand-cut scrolls; double collar; 

 fantail; steel axles; wood hub, or Sarven patent wheels of excellent quality 

 screwed rims and bolted between each spoke. Made in our own factory. 



BODIES. Best kiln-dried ash and poplar, carefully joined, and thoroughly screwed 

 and plugged; corners mitred, and secured by corner irons. 



PAINTING. Unless otherwise ordered, is black, body and. gear, with glazed carmine 

 stripe. Recognizing that this department plays an important part in the sale and 

 appearance of the vehicle, the painting is "thoroughly well done," with materials 

 of the "best quality." The gear, as well as the body, is thoroughly rubbed with 

 pumice. 



TRIMMING. Is of fine material and elegantly done. Cushions and backs fine fancy 

 trimming leather, heavy rubber boot, nice carpet and toe carpet, and storm apron. 

 Description of Pacific Grade: 



GEARS. Good seasoned hickory; machine-cut scroll; double collar; fantail; steel 

 axles, and wood hub or Sarven patent wheels, of selected, thoroughly seasoned 

 hickory, carefully made in our own factory. All wheels have screwed rims, and are 

 bolted between each spoke. 



BODIES. Thoroughly seasoned ash frames; poplar panels, glued, screwed and 

 plugged ; mitred corners, secured by corner irons. 



PAINTING. Black, with fine line striping, unless otherwise ordered. Particular at- 

 tention is given to this part of the vehicle; good materials are used, with best en- 

 deavors to make it attractive. 



TRIMMING. Backs and cushions leather ; carpet rug, storm apron and boot. 



BUGGY TOPS. 



Our " LEATHER " TOP is No. 1 leather, except the side curtains, which are of 

 heavy rubber. 



Our LEATHER QUARTER TOP has leather quarters and stays, rubber voof 

 and curtains. 



All our Buggy Tops are made with the SEPARATING SHIFTING RAIL, which admits of 

 the removal of the Top, yet leaving the lazy back on the seat. This improvement is 

 much appreciated by those who have occasion to use a buggy, both as an open and top 

 vehicle. It also enables our dealers to interchange tops in their stock, as well as to 

 change seat trimmings if desired. Any of our BUGGY TOPS are interchangeable. All 

 our tops are made with shifting rails to fit OUR SEATS. 



EXTENSION TOPS. 



Our LEATHER TOP (as used on Cabriolets and Surreys) is all leather, except 

 front quarter curtains, which are of heavy rubber. 



OUR LEATHER QUARTER TOP has leather quarters and back stays, rubber 

 roof and curtains. 



Tops and trimmings are a point much slighted by cheap buggy makers, but we 

 shall endeavor to use nothing but the best material and workmanship in both our tops 

 and trimmings.
