LEADING  MANUFACTURERS  AND  MERCHANTS  CITY  OF  BROOKLYN


B. SCHELLENBERG

Clothier
No. 99 Myrtle Avenue.- 

Mr. Schellenberg established himself in business here in 1856, and has built 
up for his house a fine reputation and a large and thriving trade. 

His store is 20x75 feet in dimensions, very finely arranged, and divided into 
two separate departments-the ready-made and the custom-clothing department. He 
is making a leading specialty of fine custom work, also all kinds of uniforms, 
and is widely known as one of Brooklyn's most successful tailors, and is a 
practical and accomplished master of the art. He keeps always in stock a full 
assortment of imported and domestic fabrics of the newest and most elegant 
designs from which to select, employs from thirty to forty hands, and 
guarantees perfect satisfaction in cut, fit, and finish. 

His stock of ready-made goods is also of the finest quality, equal in style 
and make to any custom made article, and sold at very low prices. 

Mr. Schellenberg is a native of Germany and a resident of this country for 
thirty-four years.
