Start the day with a reminder of Abraham & Straus, the department-store name that helped define generations of Brooklyn shopping. First opened in 1865 as Wechsler & Abraham on Fulton Street, A&S became Abraham & Straus in 1893 and expanded from its Brooklyn flagship across the region. The stores were largely converted to Macy's after the name was retired in 1995. This ceramic coffee mug is an easy everyday tribute for collectors, former employees, shoppers, and lovers of New York retail history.
Abraham & Straus, commonly known as A&S, was a major New York City department store based in Brooklyn. It began in 1865 at 285 Fulton Street as Wechsler & Abraham, founded by Joseph Wechsler and Abraham Abraham. In 1893, Nathan Straus, Isidor Straus, and Simon F. Rothschild bought Wechsler's interest, and the business was renamed Abraham & Straus. The company acquired the Wheeler Building at 422 Fulton Street in 1883 for its flagship, later expanding the store in a major 1928 to 1930 project. A&S joined Filene's and Lazarus in forming Federated Department Stores in 1929. It expanded across the New York metropolitan area after World War II, including branches in Hempstead, Paramus, White Plains, and Long Island. Federated merged with Allied Stores in 1992, consolidating A&S with Jordan Marsh. After Federated acquired R.H. Macy & Company in 1994, A&S was combined with Macy's. The Abraham & Straus name was retired in 1995; most locations became Macy's, while others became Stern's, Bloomingdale's, or Sears.
