Bedford Premier Shops

Messrs. G. Miller and Sons, Tailors, Military and Naval Outfitters, etc., 4 and 6, Bank Buildings.

The character of the business carried on in the above named establishment is essentially high-class in all its departments, this being ensured on Messrs. Miller and Sons' part by keeping on hand a very superior stock of well-selected goods, by employing the most efficient cutters, and by careful attention to the workmanship of every garment they make. Having been established in Bedford over fifty years, we believe they are, without doubt, the oldest firm in this trade in the High Street. They occupy the premises known as Nos. 4 and 6, Bank Buildings (opposite the Swan Hotel), which have two large plate-glass windows, where a selection of Tweeds, serges, Scotch and West of England cloths, etc., - the latest productions of the leading manufacturers - are displayed. The interiors are well fitted and most conveniently arranged for every branch of the business. We may add that the accuracy of fit and good style characterising every garment made prove to the most casual observer that they are the productions of a first-rate house, and Messrs. Miller and Sons' high reputation is only in accordance with the merits of their work.
