THE GRIFFITH & TURNER 



IMPROVED, COMBINED STEP 

 AND EXTENSION LADDER. 



THE MATERIAL USED. 



Norway pine for sides; rock elm or hickory for rungs; the very best grade of malleable 

 Iron castings for metal parts. 



Can be almost instantly changed to any height up to nearly twice its closed length, 

 the rungs always being exactly opposite each other in the lapped portion, no matter what 

 the amount of extension; or by swinging the bottoms apart, a reliable and convenient step- 

 ladder is obtained. They can also be extended or closed, and for any use that a step- 

 ladder can be used are very desirable. All ladders over 2 4 feet in length are made In 

 two long sections, with flared bottom, adding to the rigidity and reducing the slipping at 

 bottom to a minimum. This ladder will come apart and each section can be used sepa- 

 rately. This style can, of course, be extended or closed, but does not swing apart, form- 

 ing a stepladder, as does the other style. 



In ordering, bear in mind that a certain amount has to be allowed for the "lap" 

 when the ladder is in its most extended form, the amount of necessity Increasing as 

 the ladders increase in length, in order to obtain perfect safety and firmness. In 

 length of 12 to 18 feet deduct one foot for lap — that is, a 12-foot ladder would be 

 6 feet high when closed or would form a 6-foot stepladder, but would be only 1 1 feet 

 long when extended. In lengths of 2 to 3 2 feet deduct two feet, and from 3 4 to 

 40 deduct three feet from the total length in same manner.

Bent Rung Step, Extension and Single Ladders. 



A 16-foot Single Ladder weighs only 21 to 25 pounds. By drawing 

 ont a small rod at top of stepladder it can be converted into two separate 

 ladders. These goods are made nearly altogether by hand, and are very 

 much superior to factory ladders. No holes are bored in the side pieces, 

 thus making them the strongest and lightest ladders made. 



The rungs are made of toughest hickory. A slight groove in the side 

 pieces, in which the rungs are set, acts as a brace aud aids to stiffen the 

 ladder.
