PRINTING AND BOOK BINDING. GEORGE W. WILSON'S STEAM
BOOK, JOB & CARD
PRINTING ESTABLISHMENT, Book Bindery & Blank Book Manufy. Sanford Street, (next door East of Republican Office,) SPRINGFIELD, MASS.
This establishment has recently been ENTIRELY RE- VISED, and received EXTENSIVE AND IMPORTANT AD- DITIONS to its previously unsurpassed facilities for all kinds of Printing, Binding, & Blank Book Manufacture. It is the BEST and most complete concern of the kind, (devoted EXCLUSIVELY to the different branches enumerated above,) of any between Boston and New York, being considered by all acquainted with it, to be a model in its way. No other establishment in West- ern Massachusetts can excel it in the style and beauty of its productions, or in promptness of execution.
Our experience in all the different varieties of
BUSINESS BLANES,
has been long, and probably as extensive (both in Springfield and Boston,) as that of any other printer in the state, ena- bling us at once to comprehend their nature and use, and to furnish them to our customers in a much more satisfactory manner than is usually done.
It is decidedly the place for business men to get their work done, in the most perfect manner, with the least trouble to themselves, and at low prices.
One fair trial is generally sufficient to convince the most skeptical, " if any such there be."
Remember the place,
Next door EAST of Republican Office, SANFORD STREET.
