Keep a reminder of regional shopping history close at hand with this Strouss-Hirshberg foldable mobile phone display stand. Founded in Youngstown, the retailer became a leading name across the Mahoning and Shenango Valleys before its 1947 acquisition and expansion under the Strouss' name. The chain later reached malls and suburban plazas, including Boardman Plaza and Southern Park Mall. For collectors, local-history enthusiasts, and fans of department-store memorabilia, this stand connects a useful everyday accessory with a distinctly Ohio and Pennsylvania retail story.
Founded in Youngstown, Ohio, as Strouss-Hirshberg Co. by Isaac Strouss and Bernard Hirshberg, the department store became a leading retailer in the Mahoning and Shenango Valleys. May Department Stores purchased the company in 1947, shortened its name to Strouss', and expanded the chain across northern Ohio and western Pennsylvania under president C.J. Strouss. At its peak, the chain operated about 12 stores in downtown districts, malls, and strip plazas. In 1966, it opened a store at Boardman Plaza in Boardman Township, Ohio; that location moved to Southern Park Mall in 1970. In 1986, May Company consolidated the Strouss division into Kaufmann's. Many stores closed that May, including the downtown Youngstown and New Castle locations, while some mall stores became Kaufmann's. The changes followed a company strategy to focus Kaufmann's on mall locations and came amid a depressed Youngstown-area economy. The Strouss name thus traces a regional retailer from its independent founding through its May ownership and division consolidation.
