The present business is the
outgrowth of one small store established in 1884 in.
a
neighborhood shopping district by Edward Schuster and Albert T„
Friedmann.
Company was incorporated in Wisconsin, May 25, 1901.
The three department stores operated by the company have been jto. ;
their present locations for more than 30 years.
Company occupies a
unique position in Milwaukee because each of its stores is in a sepa¬

are readily accessible by public transportation to customers from the ;
