gKWiNO MACHINE SALES.
The official returns of SALES madedtiring the year
1873 by the leading manufacturers of the world again
testify to the unrivalled popularity enjoyed by the
SEWING MACHINES of the SINGEJl .MANUFAC
TURING COMPANY. The increase in this company's
sales has been truiv marvellous, ns will he at ohce
percelvod when it "is stated that in the four years
1870, 1S71, 1872, nnd 1873 nripeetively, the Singer
CVimpatiy sold 1-7,833, 1S1,2G0, -79, 75S, and 232,444
machines.
Ihcse figures are in themv-elvrs roinarkalile, hut
they iiecome still more so when eomtarcd with those
of t!i£ rotnnta made by the other principal vniupanice,
asunder:— „
1872. Ih 1573.
Tlie RINOF.R MANUFACTURING
COMPANY sold 219 758 232,444
Wheeler ami Wilson Company so d 174, OSS ili>, I DO
Grover and Bakvr Compahy told .. 52,010 30,179
Weed Company wild 42,444 21,709
Wllvox nnd Gibhs Company sold .. 32,039 16,8S1
B. IMIoweS. M. Company sold .. .. 13,919
It will thus he seen that the Singer Manufadturihg
company's sales in lb73 exceeded those of any other
company for the same pentad hy 113,254 muehines;
or. in other words, that they were nearly
DOUBLE the SALES of ANY COMPETITOR.
But the most remarkable fact in connection with
these statistics is that
The SALES of OTHER COMPANIES in 1373 were
LESS THAN in 1S72,
M'licreaH
THE SALES of the
SINGER COMPANY
SHOW A LARGE INCREASE.
It will liardly he denied that these facts fully de-
monstratotlicfluperioritv of the' SINGER" machines,
which have long been acknowledged to combine in tho
highest degree the great requisites— SjK'ed, Accuracy
And durability.
