Product Details & Size Guide
GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Give your everyday workday a to Brooklyn's retail past. Martin's grew from a coat and suit department on Fulton Street into a family-held chain with stores in Garden City, Babylon, Huntington, and beyond. Its 1924 move into the Offerman Building and its later suburban expansion reflect a period when established city retailers adapted to new shopping destinations. This laptop sleeve suits collectors of department store history and anyone drawn to the changing story of New York commerce.
Martin's grew from a coat and suit department opened by Hyman Zeitz in an existing blouse shop at Fulton and Bridge streets in Brooklyn, with a history dating to at least 1903. Zeitz eventually bought the shop, and in 1924 the business moved next door into the seven-story Offerman Building. After his death in 1930, his son Fred J. Zeitz became president. Architect Morris Lapidus designed a modernized entrance completed in 1947. Beginning in the 1950s, Martin's expanded into suburban New York, opening in Garden City in 1952, Babylon in 1956 and Huntington in 1962. Hyman Zeitz's grandson Levin became president in 1966; another grandson, Robert Rosenthal, took over in 1972. The chain opened at Smith Haven Mall in 1969 and at Riverside Square Mall in Hackensack, New Jersey, in 1977, reaching six stores. As profits declined, the family-held company was sold in October 1977 to Seedman Merchandising Group, which operated Times Square Stores. The Fulton Street store closed in 1979, and the remaining locations closed or changed names within a few years. The Offerman Building was designated a New York City Landmark in 2005.
