Gnatzig
Carriage House
05 08 1902
Ed Gnatzig, proprietor
of the new carriage house, 5th street,
says to prospective
buyers of carriages and wagons:
We have just completed unloading and
putting into our repositories the largest and most complete line of high-grade
vehicles. The new 1902 Break seat runabouts.
Stanhopes,
driving wagons, heavy and light top buggies and surries, trimmed and finished
up in the latest patterns, with steel or Goodyear rubber tire, built by the
Racine Wagon and Carriage Co., the largest manufacturers in the world of
high-grade vehicles. This is our first shipment, so that we have no old style
or shop-worn goods - all new and fresh from the factory.
And as we want to get started in
business here, we have made the price on them to meet the price you have been used
to paying for ordinary cheap goods, so that if you are a prospective buyer of
any kind of vehicle it will well pay you to come and at least give us a chance
before buying, as we have twenty different styles of vehicles to show you, and
are sure to satisfy you and save you some money.
Come while the line is complete and
get your first choice. If we cannot sell you a new rig let us repair your old
one, as we have the most complete repair shop in the city. And we are still building the best and easiest-running
milk wagon on wheels.
Also all kinds of special delivery
wagons out of the best timber and bone-dry at Ed. Gnatzig's, 107 to 115 5th
Street, Zautner's old stand [Reinhold
Zautner, blacksmith, 111 5th, res. 107 5th], where first-class repairing and
horseshoeing is done by practical mechanics. All work warranted.
