Wingfield & North.

Standing out prominently in the
front rank among the leading establishments
in their line in Charlottesville
is the progressive firm of Wingfield
& North of 916 West Main street.
They are expert painters and paper
hangers and do an extensive business
throughout the city and vicinity.
They are well and favorably known as
strictly honest and proficient workmen
and they have contracted for
work with many of the leading families
of Charlottesville. All of whom
thoroughly rely upon their integrity,
as well they should, for it becomes a
matter of the most vital importance to
patronize an honest concern whose reputation
and standing are a perfect
guarantee of reliability. Wingfield &
North keep on hand sample shades,
designs and qualities of both foreign and
domestic wall papers, all of which are of
the very latest manufacture and are
sold by the leading houses of Washington,
Baltimore and New York. In
the way of painting the firm has no
peer here and are ready to furnish estimates
on either large or small jobs, and
the very best work at rock bottom
prices is guaranteed. The individual
members of the firm (which was established
in 1904) are Arthur L. Wingfield
and John H. North, both of
whom are natives of Albemarle county
and are well known to most of our
citizens as go-ahead and progressive
young men. Mr. Wingfield is an
ex-member of the famous old Monticello
Guard and the Baptist church.
