Making Artificial Legs from Measurements
measurements, and directions for taking profiles, plaster of paris moulds, etc., that overcome all the difficulty and expense of a personal visit. To make success doubly sure, when so desired we put the leg up in the rough and forward it for trial; this gives the same opportunity of trying it that would be had here. The leg can then be returned to us with directions as to any changes that may be needed. To be sure, there is some expense for transporting the leg, but it is small compared with the cost of a journey here. A good share of our orders are being filled in this manner, and with unvarying success. Indeed, there need be no fear or hesitancy in sending orders to us for artificial legs to be made from measurements, as we guarantee a fit. Should it prove otherwise, we will make any required alterations without charge. Warranty
The following is a copy of the warranty given with each leg. The time of the warranty will depend entirely upon the price paid. See prices of the various styles.
Rochester, N.Y., 19 .
In consideration of the sum of dollars,
received from of for an artificial leg, we
hereby warrant the same, as follows: In case any part of said leg should, on account of poor material or bad workmanship, break or give way within years from the date hereof, we agree to repair the same without charge, provided that, as soon as any defect is discovered, the leg, or any part thereof that needs to be repaired or replaced, be forwarded to us without delay, and at the expense of the owner. It is not the intention of this warranty to make good without charge the unavoidable wear of the leg, or breakage caused by accident, neglect or misuse.
