"I have been using Floreat picture hangers exclusively ever since I started working at Schanely Custom Framing in Bryn Mawr  PA in August 1967 while I was getting my BA in Art Education.  Wilford Schanley supplied the customer with a Floreat hanger with each order and refused to carry any other brand.  All the hangers bought in 1967 are still in use today-almost 40 years later despite many moves and removes."

"I did the inventory and ordering there as well as the bookkeeping- we sold a lot of hangers to customers of the high end galleries in the Philadelphia area who made a special trip to the shop just to get them, as well as to museum personnel."

"What is truly amazing is that the price per hanger has gone up little compared to everything else. I stopped in at Artisan/Santa Fe in 2004, and bought all the Floreat hangers they had in stock.  The clerk said that they disappeared as soon as they were put on the rack. Obviously the art community in Santa Fe NM prefers a quality product, as did the serious art collectors on Philadelphia's Main Line."

"I was born and grew up in Stevens Point, WI where a handshake was as good as a written contract, but I was still surprised(pleasantly) that in 2006 you still ship the product along with an invoice as you did with the Schanely wholesale account, instead of sending an invoice and then shipping the product after the check clears.  Evidently the quality of your clientele is equal to the quality of your product."

Sincerely,

Nancy Dehlinger Daly
