FREDERICK R. EELES

Swan Arcade, 31, Market Street, Bradford


FREDERICK R. EELES, UMBRELLA AND PARASOL MANUFACTURER, SWAN ARCADE, 31, MARKET STREET, BRADFORD

The business carried on by Mr. Eeles Is a well-established and extensive one. It was originally founded in Queensgate, and was subsequently removed to a more central position in Market Street, and has retained since then its pre-eminence as an umbrella depot. Facing the Exchange, it is admirably situated for business purposes. The shop contains a very extensive and choice stock of umbrellas and en-tout-cas in all styles and at all prices. Of walking sticks there is a similarly comprehensive stock. Mr. Eeles is the sole maker of the “Veritable” umbrella. All materials used in the manufacture of Mr. Eeles’s umbrellas are most carefully selected with the view of securing the utmost durability combined with neatness and strength. It is his aim to supply nothing but really reliable goods and at the lowest possible prices; and as a manufacturer he is well able to accomplish this. Repairs of every description, as well as the manufacture of umbrellas, are undertaken on the premises. In fact, the re-covering and repair of umbrellas receives especial attention, and it is his constant aim to turn out all re-covered work as nearly equal to new in appearance as circumstances will permit. A large assortment of sticks is kept in stock for the manufacture of umbrellas, and this is done to order at one hour’s notice. Mr. Eeles guarantees that his umbrellas are made as strong as skill and experience and good materials can make them. A very choice assortment is kept of elaborately mounted walking-sticks and umbrellas suitable for presentation purposes.

GEORGE PICKERING

37, Tyrrel Street, Bradford


G. PICKERING, UMBRELLA AND WALKING-STICK MANUFACTURER, 37, TYRREL STREET, BRADFORD

Among the most promising and noteworthy of the newer commercial and industrial undertakings that have been launched in Bradford within the last few years, one of the most prominent and representative is the extensive and flourishing umbrella and walking-stick manufacturing business which Mr. George Pickering recently established at 37, Tyrrel Street, Bradford. In a very short period of time this extensive concern has assumed a position of considerable and thriving prosperity, and Mr. Pickering is rapidly increasing and developing the scope and extent of operations with the most highly satisfactory results. The premises consist of a substantial building of three storeys, having a roomy and commodious shop on the ground floor, and containing a valuable and comprehensive stock of umbrellas with silver and ivory mounted handles, &c., and also a choice selection of sticks in ebony and other woods, mounted with horn, ivory, and other handles. Umbrellas are recovered in the best style, and sticks of all kinds dressed and suitably mounted with the greatest promptitude and efficiency. A considerable business is also done in covers, sticks, and fittings for the trade. Mr. Pickering is a thoroughly practical man, having wide and valuable experience, and an intimate acquaintance with every branch of the trade, and he bears a very high reputation for the thoroughly reliable character of all the work executed in his excellent establishment and the superior quality of all the materials employed. He is a smart, active, and enterprising business man, of sound and substantial standing, and he is locally very well known and universally esteemed and respected.

REGIMENTAL UMBRELLA HANDLES


Image


Attractive umbrella handles are a great pleasure to many women, who love pretty things always about them. This is particularly true of some regimental umbrella handles, which appeal in every possible way. They are made of tortoiseshell with the regimental crest inlaid in silver and are very fascinating articles in themselves. Most people have many friends and relations on active service, and anything connected with their Corps or Regiment is of peculiar value.

The firm in question keep umbrella handles ready stocked inlaid with the crests of many different regiments. Should they, however, not happen to have any one that is asked for, it is only the brief time of four days before they execute the order. The inlaid crest is remarkably well done, and every detail of inscription or design is absolutely correct.

These umbrella handles are remarkably inexpensive and very easily attached to an umbrella already in use. The firm themselves can do so in half an hour, so that a customer's convenience is suited in every way. Silk-covered umbrellas with long slender sticks and regimental handles are also kept and extremely well they look.
