Norwich (England) -- Directories
“It has often been lamented that ‘popular tracts,’ so called, are not
really popular in their style, and in their manner of dealing with
practical subjects. Our experience teaches us that the complaint is
well founded, and we are happy to have it in our power to point out
to our readers a very useful series of TRACTS FOR THE PEOPLE,
published by Messrs. JARROLD AND SONS, of London and Norwich, which
are more really ‘popular’ in their style, and more likely to interest
and benefit the ‘working classes,’ and the class immediately above
them, than any other tracts which we have met with on the same
subject. There is a strong vein of common sense, and some humour
running through them. The print and paper are very good—their
appearance is attractive—and their price very low.”—_English
Churchman_.
Letters in high commendation of these original and popular Tracts
have been received from LORD CHIEF JUSTICE CAMPBELL; the ARCHBISHOP
OF DUBLIN; CHARLES BUXTON, ESQ., M.P.; CANON HUGH STOWELL,
Manchester; the EARL OF RADNOR; the REV. JOHN ROBINSON, one of the
Secretaries of the London City Mission; the REV. J. C. MILLER, Rector
of St. Martin’s, Birmingham; the REV. SAMUEL MARTIN, Westminster; the
REV. C. H. SPURGEON, London; the REV. A. ROBERTS, Rector of
Woodrising, Norfolk; from SIR CULLING E. EARDLEY, BART.:
Vice-Chancellor SIR W. PAGE WOOD, BART., &c. (_For a Selection see
Prospectuses_.) They have also been favourably noticed in the
“_British Mothers’ Magazine_,” “_Sunday School Teacher’s Magazine_,”
and by the leading Periodical Press.

JARROLD & SONS,
(PRINTERS OF THIS DIRECTORY,)
INVITE special attention to the following DEPARTMENTS of their Business.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PRINTING.
By the Introduction of STEAM POWER and a STEREOTYPE FOUNDRY into their
Working Plant, J. & SONS are enabled to combine cheapness and expedition,
without the slightest sacrifice of superior workmanship. They have now
in operation Machinery suitable for the finest book work, as well as for
the ordinary requirements of commercial enterprize, such as HANDBILLS,
SHOP BILLHEADS, TEA WRAPPERS, &c.
The very large number of Compositors and Pressmen engaged upon their
Printing Staff, enables them to offer especial advantages to Solicitors,
Auctioneers, Architects, &c., to whom _expedition_ is mainly essential.
Manuscripts of every kind carefully prepared for the Press.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BOOK-BINDING.
In this department arrangements have recently been made for conducting
the entire business on the Premises; from Folding and Sewing the sheets
by female assistants, to the Gilding and Finishing by competent workmen.
