From Graces Guide

BENNION and HEALEY, Liverpool.

Paragon brougham, circular front, roomy for four inside, high wheels, weight 8 cwt.

The peculiarity of the Paragon Brougham consists in the increased accommodation it affords, with greatly reduced weight and draught; and, in the employment for the springs and ironwork, of the Bessemer steel and iron, which combine increased toughness and endurance, with reduced weight, and unusual lightness of appearance. There is also an opera board, which is readily convertible into a luggage platform when required.
