Richman Brothers

Richman Brothers was a subsidiary of the F. W. Woolworth Company. It was founded in Ohio in 1853.[1] Through the years it became to be known as a fine men’s clothing store, and though initially the stores would sell only men’s suits, coats, and hats[2], during the last years of its existence it also sold women’s clothing. There were several stores across the United States, including in Nebraska[3]and Indiana. The company closed down in the early 1990s.
