Chronicles of the Commercial Visible, References

The Astor Library was a research library in New York, founded in 1854. In 1895, it consolidated with other libraries to become the New York Public Library, a resource I have used over the years to search the historic New York directories, a key resource for these blog articles. This picture was from an 1897 Guide Book of Greater New York, located just across the pond from, and posted a year before the Commercial Typewriter Company established its manufacturing facility in Carlstadt, NJ. (Westover, 1897; “Astor Library”, 2025)

In this post you will find the complete list of references for the pictures and citations throughout Parts I - VI of Chronicles of the Commercial Visible.

The page is set to be deleted in December 2025, so here is the direct quote from the research project: "A native of Beloit, Wisconsin, Eugene Abiel Lancaster (1848–1932) was a carpet merchant.  He usually went by E.A. Lancaster.  Ben Hutchinson had purchased the former Allen & Mackey Carpet company for his son-in-law in 1876, a year after his marriage to Helen, and the store was renamed Chicago Carpet Company. In addition to carpet, the store offered furniture, draperies and oriental rugs.  Located for over two decades at 156-162 Wabash, at the corner of Monroe St., the store contents were destroyed by a fire in 1897.  The following year John. C. Carroll bought controlling interest and the name was changed to Caroll & Lancaster.  The structure was rebuilt but by then Carroll & Lancaster had moved across the street to the opposite corner of Wabash and Monroe. When Carroll died in 1905, his wife became involved in the company and they relocated to 172 Wabash. The firm could not survive the 1907 Panic and filed bankruptcy in 1908. It's inventory was purchased by a Boston company. In addition to its residential trade, the store furnished theaters and public buildings."
