Spent many hours at Cuvrystrasse! May dad was the shipping manager!

Funny to think it’s now an apartment complex.

My great-grandfather worked in this factory from roughly 1906 to 1926, and I’ve been trying to reconstruct his experience for a book. I visited the factory a few years ago, but never made it inside. This was very helpful.

I have some great stories from inside this factory if you would like to hear them.

REST IN PEACE

I guess it would have been in 2003 or 4…
