People Who
Travel
Say our laundry work equals that
which is to be found anywhere else in
the country.
Very few laundries pay any atten
tion to the fit of the shirt.
Every shirt we launder is ironed to
fit just as the maker intended.
Many laundries iron a collar or
shirt with so much pressure and fric
tion that it fairly crushes the life out
of the linen.
Our ironing is done by low pressure
machinery and leaves the lmen thick
and pliable.
Many laundries break collars after
a few times laundering.
We are laundering collars today
that we have laundered for many
months.
May we have a trial package from
you?
