"The present management of the Ohio Overall Co. bought the business from E. B. Childs on the first of January, 1906 and immediately began operations. Just one glance at the accompanying illustration will show how successful they have been. They manufacture a strictly high grade line of workingmen's garments, making a general line for railroad men, farmers or mechanics. The goods are marked under the "Ohio" farmers or mechanics. The goods are marketed under the "Ohio" brand.

The cloth used in the manufacture of the garments comes from the southern mills and the product is sold exclusively in Ohio. The demand for these garments is so great that the company does not go outside of the state, but makes an Ohio garment for Ohio people. The goods are sold direct too the trade and can be found in all first class stores selling men's goods. Prices and samples furnished to the trade on request." [1]
