Neat and Intelligent Plumbers

1900: Horace F. Westcott of 27 Howard St. in Albany. Neat and intelligent plumbers. Up to date! And, apparently, quite dapper.

And I’m reminded of this wonderful image that used to hang in the window of Farrell Bros. Plumbing on Delaware Avenue. The plumber protects the health of the nation!

    “The plumber protects…” is the slogan for the NYC plumbers union local. We got this pic hanging in our training center!
