Edwin F. Bacon
General Engraver and Die Sinker, 65 Clark street, opposite Sherman House, Chicago, Ill.
Chicago Tribune, July 21, 1857
ENGRAVING.—Bacon & Co., No. 65 Clark street, are taking the lead in this branch of business. Mr. Bacon has recently associated with himself in the business Mr. Wm. D. Baker of Philadelphia, an artist who has few equals in this country as a Designer and Engraver on wood, and also Francis E. Thomas of this city, well known as a neat ornamental Engraver on metals, marking jewelry, &c. With these new acquisitions and other skiliful workmen in every branch of the business, this enterprising firm may safely be commended to publie favor.

Corbin & Co., Tobacconists.
Corbin & Co., the well known tobacconists, (D. W. Corbin, agent), 65 Clark street, have just thrown open their new cigar store to the public. It is a perfect gem of a place and has been furnished and fitted up in tip top order. The carpenters and painters have so completely changed the old stand that it will hardly be recognized by the patrons who have thronged the well known corner where “Corbin’s Own” have been so long dealt out. Corbin has furnished the new establishment with a fresh and extensive stock of cigars, chewing and smoking tobacco of the most approved brands. It is hardly necessary for us to endorse the well known “Corbin’s Own,” as its praises are in every smoker’s mouth. Few cigars are of better flavor or give more unqualified satisfaction. The various lots of smoking and chewing tobacco are of the very best description, In a day or two, he will be thoroughly provided with pipes of every kind, from meerschaum to cutty, cigar holders, tobacco pouches, and all the other appliances necessary to the smoker.
The factory of Corbin & Co., is now in full blast, employing thirty hands and turning out the best of cigars at a rate which will ensure the filling of orders promptly and satisfactorily. We heartly commend the firm to the great chewing and fumigating public, and especially to country dealers, who will find it to their advantage, both in the matter of economy and a good article, to send their orders to Corbin & Co., 65 Clark street.
