The giant is Sklar Fumiture, one of the largest upholstered furniture manufacturers in Can- ada. The other, a little known local industry is owned and. operated by a man who builds his. product with his hands alone -- a qual- ity product which is a delight to the eyes of the beholder, but one he will never see. William "'Bill" Jermyn lost his eyesight in 1961, and in the past years he has been produc- ing antique Canadiana repro- ductions and has been the sole support of his wife and small daughter. Sklar located in Whitby in 1963 after a number of years of furniture production in Oshawa. STARTED IN 1945 In 1945 four brothers, Sam, Harry, Joe and Louis began to manufacture upholstered furni+ ture in Oshawa. The aim of the company was te produce a quality product at a price that would delight the consumer. To accomplish this aim they introduced into Canada the pro- duction line method of furniture manufacture. 8 t t t 8 All of the latest advances in|® engineering techniques were ap- plied in the new company. The result was a high quality product at a good price and rallied his spirits, fall of 1961 a friend lent him an antique cobblers bench and asked him to make another. week,"' he says, ets to four poster beds com- plete with canopy.

His products are a delight to he eye and are built from the original model by the touch of his hands alone, He has never, and will never see them, for one morning in February in opened his eyes, and found he could not' see. 1961 he awoke, For the next six months he and in the "I worked on that bench for a "and I never hought I could do it."
