Keuffel & Esser had their factory in Hoboken which is depicted twice in the preliminary pages. This building suffered a fire in 1905 which led to the company to construct a fire-proof building on the block west of the one seen here. It opened in 1907 with a distinctive clock tower. K&E moved its offices to Hoboken and it became shown as the the General Office and Factory.
The company repaired and continued to use the building seen in this catalog until it left Hoboken in 1968. Both it and the Clock Tower building have been converted to residential housing.
