Edward Ermold Company, 652 Hudson St., New York, 2001 |  |
|
These signs read "Edward Ermold Company / Automatic Labeling / And
Power Corking Machinery."
Parts of the lower 2 strips have been over-painted by what looks like "Weston Corporation". Edward Ermold began as a machinist at 276 Third St., New York, in 1881. The company manufactured labelling, bottle corking and packaging machinery. (see 1928 ad for Edward Ermold). Edward Ermold Company was located here at 652 Hudson St. at the corners of Gansevoort and 13th Streets from 1892 until the early 1950's. Recent renovations of this building removed these signs in late 2001. |
| A photo by Percy Loomis Sperr (1890-1964) shows these signs in 1934. This can be found on the New York Public Library's Digital Gallery. |
