Sepia-tone photographs, four, of an old wood framed building on site of R. Neumann & Co., Hoboken, no date, circa 1917-1918.
8" x 10" contemporary contact prints. Photographer not indicated. Reverse of all are blank.
Exact location of the three story structure not given but likely on Newark St. near Adams. Prints are from Neumann files courtesy of the Bernheim Family. While the photographs were apparently documentation use in the process of acquiring the building which would have been demolished for expansion of this company's tannery and leather products manufacturing business. See photos 2014.070.1702 to .1708 which document construction of a modern factory building in the area where this building was located.
