First in personal service for over 30 years. A few short cors ego, when wool, cotton and silk were practically the only fabrics used in clothing, a basic knowledge o' these fabrics and their reaction to various cleaning pro cesses was all the dry cleaner needed. Not so today! With the advent of the ".Miracle" fabrics, Orion, Nylon, Acrilan, and the host of oth ers, even Fibre-Glass and paper, today's dry cleaner studies constantly. New cleaning and finishing techniques, new solvents, new spotting process to best take care of the ever in creasing number of "Man-made" fibres are thoroughly tested by the American Institute of Laundercrs and The Nationol Institute of Dry Cleaning. These findings are passed along to us as member cleaners. We have kept abreast of the latest techniques, and the equipment in our four modern plants is the latest available, even radio controlled trucks for faster service. You can trust your clothing to us!
