Add a reminder of Akron's shopping history to your desk with an O'Neil's Foldable Mobile Phone Display Stand. The O'Neil's story began in 1877 at a dry goods store on East Market Street and grew into a regional department store chain. Its downtown Akron location became a local landmark, particularly during the holidays, when animated window displays drew attention. The company name disappeared from stores in 1989, leaving a memorable place in northeastern Ohio retail history. A distinctive choice for collectors and former shoppers.
O'Neil's was an American department store chain founded in 1877, when Michael O'Neil and Isaac Dyas opened a dry goods store at 114 East Market Street in Akron, Ohio. After Dyas died in 1892, the business became the M. O'Neil Co. May Department Stores acquired it in 1912 for $1 million. A new downtown Akron store opened in 1927 and remained until the late 1980s. O'Neil's expanded across the Akron and Canton areas, with branches in nearby communities and malls. The downtown store was known for large display windows and elaborate animated holiday scenes. In 1989, the downtown store closed and the remaining O'Neil's locations merged with May Company Ohio; the O'Neil's name was retired. May Company Ohio was later merged into its Pittsburgh division, Kaufmann's, in 1993. The chain's history connects a local Akron dry goods shop with regional department-store growth and successive corporate consolidations.
