A Point of Progress in Furnishing Homes 
the particulars of which are important to everybody building anew or reconstructing the old. 
It is now an admitted fact that we have worked out a great thought in constructing our large 
new building especially to install a new kind of Furnishing and Decoration business, wherein 
we have now upwards of three millions of dollars in fine and distinctive Furniture, Draperies and Floor 
Coverings and all that pertains to a home, and are able at all times to assemble and group the actual pieces 
of Furniture, Wall, Window and Floor Coverings and show by a staff of artistic and experienced men the 
harmonious furnishings of a single simple or elaborate room, or an entire mansion swung into balance and 
harmony, according to the individuality of the owner, with cost estimated, not by pictures or photographs, 
but definitely and reasonably by the actual articles. This business, just begun, is the growing quantity of 
the Wanamaker business, twelve years in New York and in Philadelphia for the last 48 years. Behind 
it there are all our valuable mistakes, and costly experiences and perfected systems, to enable us to perform in 
the best manner whatever we undertake. 
The House Palatial is a lofty, solidly built mansion of two stories within our building, with 24 spacious 
rooms, furnished equally well with many of the best of the Fifth Avenue residences. Smaller and simpler 
buildings are in course of censtruction to show, beside the richest, the humblest and moderate though 
thoroughly artistic examples of Furnishing. 
Correspondence invited, and a fullstaf¥ of competent people ready to take on and execute promptly any 
work entrusted to us. Freightage from New York isasmall matter in comparison with obvious satisfactions gained. 
It pleases us to think that we have learned how to be economic and artistic and do things out of the 
common when desired.
