Supplied by L. Barth & Son of New York, there were no topmarks or logos but an ink backstamp of Made For Reisenweber’s Columbus Circle New York. All backstamps are blue. In addition the body is incised with the date coding method used by Maddock at the time of a Crown over GV over III which would be the third year of the realm of King George the fifth, being around 1912-3.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5475164893058336118.post-64383591497860410342022-01-24T21:30:12.006-05:002022-01-24T21:30:12.006-05:00In answer to the question about the location, Reis...In answer to the question about the location, Reisenweber's was located in a cluster of buildings at the southwest corner of 58th St. and Eighth Avenue, where the Steelcase Furniture Building is now located.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5475164893058336118.post-5710399464565457732019-10-21T18:20:29.418-04:002019-10-21T18:20:29.418-04:00I have a special interest in in where you got all...I have a special interest in in where you got all these memorabilia as I am a great great great grandson of John Reisenweber.

It's referred to as Columbus Circle in NYC (and as a lifetime NYCer I know that to be 59th Street and Eighth Ave at the southern end of Central Park). However, elsewhere I see that "Columbus Circle" Reisenweber's location to be 48th Street and Broadway in the Theatre District. To my knowledge, Columbus Circle was never 10-11 blocks further south than the location is has been known by for several decades. Can you please clarify the location of the original Reisenweber's?Leslie Carrollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12240911659194990447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5475164893058336118.post-35282386693844257732018-07-22T16:22:05.483-04:002018-07-22T16:22:05.483-04:00My grandparents, Al B.
