Evidence of Positive Supremacy
There arc forty-six manufacturers of sewing
machines in America.
How many can you name How many did
you ever hear of
i One name comes to the mind of every
woman immediately the Singer-and
there's a very good reason.
The Singer makes and sells as many ma-
chines in a year as ell the forty-five
manufacturers combined.
Q The Singer Sewing Machine is known as
the best sewing machine in cry country
on the globe. There is a Singer store in
every city of world. Why
Because, when you buy a Singer you do
not buy simply so much wood and steel
you buy the latest result of the longest
and best experience.
