Before Jet Aviation made crossing the oceans a mere "hop- skip-and a jump", travel abroad was synonymous with an ocean passage. This was the era of the great Ocean Liners ...an era of splendid design and construction, of turbine propulsion, and of Edwardian luxury. And Wall-New Bedford rope was there... used extensively on many of these mag- nificent "floating palaces".

Since our beginnings in 1830, Wall-New Bedford has placed emphasis on the quality, craftsmanship and performance of our rope. Today, this tradition is still very much alive at

Wall-New Bedford. The fibers and constructions of our rope may have changed. But the craftsmanship remains the same. Our century and a half of experience with rope fiber selections and manufacturing techniques is your assurance of durability, performance, and expert craftsmanship.

While we are proud of our long and colorful history, our attention remains focused squarely on the future — as we develop new and more efficient ways to provide our cus- tomers with the best made rope you can buy. 146 YEARS OF PROVEN
