THE BOMGARDNER LOWERI/N6 DEVICE 
i-i g’liaranteed to be the most perfect and practical. The illustrations represent the latest improvements. 
CUT NO. 1. 
All jobbers in Undertakers’ Supplies are 
authorized agents for our device. 
CUT No. 1 represents the device in its small- 
est dimensions, 79 in. by 20 in., and largest dimen- 
sions 90 in. by 34 in. Any size desired is obtainable 
between the two extremes. We furnish the best 
center detacher in the market. 
CUT No. 2. 
CUT No. 2 shows the extension device ex- 
tended to its largest dimensions with eight full 
g-rown men, besides a plank which weighed at least 
200 lbs., for the men to stand on. This is no test 
of its strength. 
Any one who has ever used a device will readily 
comprehend the advantages to be obtained from 
our latest improvement. It will be noticed that it 
is supplied with the double brake, each acting in- 
dependently of the other. We now claim the earth 
for lowering devices, and solicit an opportunity 
to send to any responsible party, subject to 
approval. 
THE BOMGARDNER LOWERING DEVICE CO., 
In addition to the advantages 
to be obtained from a device that 
can be changed to any desired 
size, we have the lightest, strong-- 
est, the most substantial made, 
and the only device with which 
the Casket can be raised from 
the grave as well as lowered.

Device Co., 
Gentlemen:— I have tried and tested 
your device in every way, and con- 
sider it the best on the market to-day. 
I have tried both of the other stand- 
ard makes, and find yours to give the 
best service, and have returned the 
other two. 
Yours truly,
