Text Appearing Before Image:
loor is devoted to the lithographing department, a depart-ment that is unexcelled on this Coast, and which is a specialty withMessrs. Crocker & Co. The workmen are masters of their art, as a glanceat their productions will show; vide, cut of building. Upon the fifth floor is the book-bindery. Here some sixty girls andfoi-ty men are constantly employed. Altogether, from the cellar, wherehundreds of tons of heavy goods are stored, to the busy fifth floor, about400 employees may be seen at work; the number more or less directlyemployed outside, but with the establishment, may therefore be imag-ined. The dimensions of the floors are 70 x 140 feet; but they are fullyoccupied; each is easily reached by the elevator which, together with allthe numerous presses and machines, are operated by a magnificent80 horse-power Corliss engine. Altogether, the establishment of Crocker & Co. forms one of the sightsof San Francisco; and it is so regarded by all who have ever visited theirbuilding.beautiesofcalifo00gris
