Joseph SCHOLLE

Dealer in Fine Groceries, Hay, Fleur, Feed, etc.
corner Kent Avenue and North First Street.- 

Twenty-seven years of continuous success marks the history of the well and 
favorably known concern of Mr. Joseph Scholle, whose enterprise is by common 
consent one of the leading and best kept general grocery stores in the 
northeastern part of the city. 

The store is 25x75 feet in dimensions and fitted up and equipped in the 
most superior manner, and an extensive and carefully selected stock is 
constantly carried and on hand to meet the requirements of steadily 
increasing demand, including pure teas, coffees, and spices, sauces, preserves, 
canned goods, table luxuries, prime butter, fine family flour, household 
articles, and choice staple and fancy groceries of every variety, also hay, 
straw, feed, meal, etc. 

Three efficient clerks are employed, while two delivery wagons are constantly 
engaged serving customers. This store is one of the oldest as well as one 
of the foremost in this line in the locality, the business having been 
carried on in the present quarters since 1863, and altogether a flourishing 
trade is done. 

Mr. Scholle was born in Germany, came to this country in 1853, and is an old 
and respected resident of Brooklyn. He is a popular and prominent member of 
the Grocer & Association of the city.
