A Christmas Gift Made by Goshen Sweeper Co., Grand Rapids, Mich.
Who wouldn't want a sweeper for Christmas! The women depicted in this Victorian-era advertising trade card certainly seem pleased with their new Goshen sweeper and other gifts!
"A Christmas gift, made by Goshen Sweeper Co., Grand Rapids, Mich. A Merry Xmas. Gies & Co., Buffalo, N.Y."
Printed on the back of this advertising trade card:
Our carpet sweeper is strongly made, does not easily get out of order, and lasts for years even with constant use.
Sweeps easily and cleanly, backward and forward, with less wear and tear to the carpet than any other sweeper (brooms are death to carpets); goes farther into the corners, too.
Doesn't spill dirt, and when you are ready it empties itself--almost, it is so simple.
"The Rapid" is one name for it--all the same, it's a Goshen Sweeper; made for us.
And just that is why it is better than any other.
The Mowrey Latshaw Hdw. Co, Spring City, Pa.
"It takes the dirt."
Note: The Mowrey Latshaw Hardware Company, also known as Latshaw's Hardware, opened in 1875 and is still in business in Spring City, Pa., today, according to its Facebook page.
