1 N G E It'S SEWING MACHINES
MORE VICTORIOUS THAN EVER.
The official returns of sales made during the year
1874 by the leading manufacturers of the world again
afford most convincing proof of the great popularity
enjnvcd by the Sowing Machines of the SINGER
MANUFACTURING COMPANY. In tho year 1874
the SINOER COUFANY sold 241,670, nearly a
QUARTER of a MILLION MACHINES.
This immense nnd unprecedented sale is in itself
remarkable, but its Importance becomes still more
apparent upon nn examination of the following figures,
wliich are copied from tho returns of the leading
manufacturers for tho last throe years
Tho SINGER MANUFACTURING Co. sold 219,758
In 1872, 232,444 in 1873, 241,679 in 1874. Wheeler and
Wilson Co. sold 174,083 iu 1872, 119,190 in 1873,
92.827 In 1S74.
It will thus bo seen that tho Singor Company's
sales in 1874 exceeded those of any other company for
tlie samo period by 14S.S62 machines.
