ROWE'S 



GLOUCESTER 



BED HAMMOCK 



For Porches, Verandas and 

 Outdoor Sleeping 



The only Genuine Gloucester Hammocks are made by 

 E. L. Rowe & Son, Inc., and bear our small silk name 

 label. 



We made them first for the U. S. Navy forty years ago. 

 They have since then become the most popular piece of 

 porch furniture all over the world. Don't judge them by 

 the imitations made with light-weight canvas and unskilled 

 workmanship. 



The Rowe Gloucester is made of duck weighing 21 oz. 

 to the yard (lighter weight is too weak). It is made by sail- 

 makers — no other class of workmen know how to sew and 

 fit and handle sail canvas so that it will wear well and not 

 sag or lose its shape. 



Rowe's Hammocks have consistently given ten years of 

 continuous outdoor service. We never had one returned to 

 us as unsatisfactory. They are firm, strong, comfortable. 

 They present essential advantages of which other makers 

 have not even learned the need. 



Some of the dealers selling Rowe's Gloucester Hammocks 

 are named below. If you are not so located as to deal con- 

 veniently with them, we will supply you direct. Before you 

 buy a hammock, be sure to see ours and look for our 

 name on the label. Send for illustrated book and prices.
