GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Take a piece of Milwaukee retail history along for the day with this Schuster's tumbler. Founded in 1883, Ed. Schuster & Co. built a chain around neighborhood stores, from Third Street to Packard Plaza and Capitol Court. The company made its mark with trading stamps and the Budga-Plate charge card before becoming Gimbels-Schuster's after a 1962 purchase. This commemorative design suits Wisconsin history fans, regional-store collectors and anyone drawn to the stories behind familiar local shopping places.
Founded in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in 1883, Schuster's, officially Ed. Schuster & Co., became a department store chain built around neighborhood locations rather than a single downtown store. Its sites included 2151 N. Third St., now Martin Luther King Jr. Drive, 12th and Vliet streets, 11th and Mitchell streets, Packard Plaza and Capitol Court. Kirchhoff & Rose designed the Third Street store. The company introduced trading stamps in 1891 and an early charge card called Budga-Plate. Its promotions also included Billie the Brownie, a doll offered from 1927 to 1955, and Schuster's Christmas Parade. Golda Meir worked at Schuster's after graduating from high school in 1915 and before moving to Palestine in 1921. Gimbels bought Schuster's in 1962, and the stores operated as Gimbels-Schuster's until 1969. The chain is now defunct. Its history connects Milwaukee retail, neighborhood shopping, department-store marketing and a mid-century corporate transition.
