ORWALK IS proud of its industries by which it is known all over the world. It
has many. The Crofut & KnappuCom pany is one of them. It was started in 1858
and has grown to the point where its annual business runs: into millions of dol-
lars. The new factory will be completed this year, is to be the most
modern hat factory in the world. it will be a great asset to the city. It will be seen
by every passenger going through on the railroad. It will employ more hands. It
will increase the amount of money spent in payrolls. Directly and indirectly it will
benefit every merchant, bank, owner of real estate and citizen of Norwalk. '
For the Crofut & Knapp Company it will enable larger earnings and a capacity.
for growth now impossible on account of limited factory space and antiquated fac-
tory quarters. Earnings, which are now exceptionally good, 'will possiblybc doubled
or trebled.
The Company has no mortgages or other incumbrances on its property.
It has nearly twice as much Common Stock as Preferred. ‘
The Common Stock is not for sale. The large block which was recently sold was
bought by the owners of the old Common Stock and their associates for $109 a‘
share, cash.
The Preferred Stock is a first claim on the Company’s assets, its real estate,
buildings and machinery, its cash, its notes and accounts rcccivdblc, and goods in‘
stock, ‘ The assets quickly convertible into cash are Worth more than the entire Pre-
ferred Stock issue; Its property, including real estate is worth over $250 a share of
Preferred Stock which costs $98.00 a share. ' '
'A local investment with such security as this, paying over 7%‘, which cannot be
taken away from you for 1633 than $110 a share is not publicly ofiered very often.
When you also realize that you do not have to pay any Connecticut or local property
tax on it, nor any normal federal income tax, you will see its further advantage. You
know, or know of, the men running the business. Your dividends must be paid cv._
cry three, months before they receive ally dividends. Their investment is entirely
subordinate to yours.
Buying and Selling Investments is our business and we thoroughly believe in
this one. We think it is exceptionally 800d. A large part of the issue has been sold
to our own customers, the remaining third we ofier to you for subscription. We are
willing to keep our representatives in Norwalk‘ until the remainder of the issue is
sold. It will greatly facilitate our work and be more satisfactory to you to have a per-
sonal talk before you. enter an order. '
Bysubscribing to Crofut & Knapp Com pany Preferred Stock you become a part-
ner in a local bgsiness which willbe a Sourceofprofitastellaspridewithyou. This
is the first time in sixty-five years of business that there has been a public ofiering of
Crofut & Knapp Stock. Besides being a safe investment we believe that the market
on this stock will gradually advance ”to the call price of $110.00 a share and we
strongly advice its purchase at the present price of $98.00.
