Hermann Esser-1920

The Esser family were German immigrants to the USA in the 1800's and were importers and distributors of traditional products of Greater Germany.  Beer, drafting equiptment, transits, bayonets for dress-up occasions.


As well Hermann Esser dabbled in journalism as editor of "Peoples Observer".



Distributed bayonets made by Eickhorn and Puma:




Set up operations on the main drag in KOLN called Krebsgasse in District 20.
  
Zürich " Old Town" Switzerland is just a dwarf toss away!

William J.D. Keuffel and Hermann Esser Manufacturing Complex was built in 1906 after big fire destroyed the first one in Hoboken, New Jersey.  It was converted to residential apartments in 1975.  

"Look under seat cushions before you sit."

Just like a hotel but a booklet of "My Political Awakening" beside the bed instead of a Gideon Bible.
