English: Advertisement containing an exterior view showing the Ridge Road entrance to the "John Baird," "Spring Garden Marble Mantle Manufactory" and "Steam Marble Works" erected in 1846. Works include a central courtyard, offices, and adjoining yard marked "Garden Statuary, Vases, Ornamental Sculpture, &c." that contains a variety of fountains, vases, and statues on the platform roof. A cupola adorns a rear building of the factory. In front of the courtyards, gravestones are displayed and workers move large slabs of marble with a lever and by dolly. On the roof of the central courtyard, a clerk shows patrons a selection of monuments. In front of the factory, couples promenade on the sidewalk, a horse is hitched, a couple rides on horseback and dogs greet each other in the street. The woman rides side-saddle. Also shows employees within the courtyard, office windows, and visible through an open entryway climbing a flight of stairs. Baird established his business in 1841 gaining a reputation as a vanguard in the modern operations of marble works. |
