Wilhelm Henzold Ansbach

Hallo Chris

I fully agree with you

A real lining into a bad Franky

There was a Wilhelm Henzold (kurschnermeister and pelzwarenhandlung) proprietor of the company Heirs of Georg Jacobs, in Neustadt 19, as for 1921 Ansbach adressbuch:

Close-up of Hess logo. Actually an Effekten distributor:

I have focused on the obscure manufacturers/retailers, because there is already an almost comprehensive documentation about the most important ones.

Well. I continue then to publish this research, which has remained in my drawer for a long time, thanking Chris for his encouragement to me.

Daniel Hess, Herren & Damenschneiderei, reithosen-spezialist, uniform & militaereffekten, Kaiserstrasse 27 (on the corner of Marcusstrasse), from the 1937 Wurzburg adressbuch:

A very generic retailer.

close-up of Drescher logo:

According to the family chronicles this firm, at first a weißgerbers and then a kürschnerei, was founded by Joachim Drescher in 1654, already in the historical site of Kesslergasse 8 in Schweinfurt (no. 10 was acquired towards the end of the nineteenth century and no. 12 in 1908). During World War II the company was almost destroyed and it restarted in 1953. Currently it is still in business.

D. Rabus :

David Rabus, uniformschneidereien and militaereffektengeschaefte, Karl-Schefoldstrasse 9 (even if here I see an address in Neutorstrasse), from the 1939 Ulm adressbuch:

http://wiki-de.genealogy.net/w/index....djvu&page=140

http://wiki-de.genealogy.net/w/index....djvu&page=381
http://wiki-de.genealogy.net/w/index....djvu&page=256

I have to add that Ulm was the garrison city of the Infanterie Regiment no. 56 and this matches the owner's tag.
