FOR 



FAMILY AND PLANTATION SEWING. 



From the very flattering manner in which our Machines 

 have been received by the public, resulting in the sale of 

 upwards of 



60,000, 



We are led to believe that our endeavors to manufacture A 

 RELIABLE MACHINE liave been appreciated. We talie tills 

 opportunity to remark that the policy will remain unchanged, 

 and that 



EVERY MACHINE SOLD BY US 



We shall not hesitate to warrant in every respect. 



GROVER & BAKER SEWING MACHINE 



has one advantage which Is worthy of especial attention. In 

 addition to the peculiar cliaracter of tlie stitch, and that Is its 

 adaptation to either liplit or medium heavy work. The 

 Machine which at one moment is used on 



The Most Delicate Fabric, 



in a few moments after can be brought to bear with equal 

 facility on cottonades and towels of the coarsest description. 

 Its adaptation for 



FAMILYWORK, 



is thus remarlfable, and gives it a superiority over every other 

 style of machine in tlie market. 



FROM TUE SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN 



of Nov. 5, 1S59, wliich we think is fully entitled to be conclu- 

 sive, from tlie high character of that paper, which is con- 

 sidere<ltlie best authority on all such subjects as that under 

 consideration. 



The machines manufactured by this company are too well 

 known by the public at large to need any recommendations at 

 our hands, and we will mmply add that we have liad one of 

 them in use in our family for some time past, and it is con- 

 sidered the most userul article in the house next to the cradle, 

 arid no less indispensable titan that. In No. 2 of the preeent 

 volume (l^M) of t'le Scientific Ameticun, we published an 

 illustration showing the niLclianical principles of the Grover 

 A Baker machine. By reference to that illustration, the form 

 of the stitch will be seen, and its security from ripping, as 

 well as its superior elasticity, will lie readily understood." 



There are constantly kept on exhibition machines of the 

 different patterns and styles of finish, for the convenience of 

 imrchasers. Young ladies, experienced in their use and 

 courteous in their manners, are always on hand to receive 

 lady visitors or purcha.sers.
