Notes:
Acker, Merrall & Condit listed from 1880-1915.

The thimble is much like that from Alex Young, Phila., PA in weight and design. "Blue Grass" was a Young brand. Most "Keystone" brands were from Philadelphia also, but from Rosskam - Gerstley Co rather than from Young.

Acker, Merrall & Condit were grocers listed from 1880 until at least 1915, and Mark Smith suggests that they continue in business to this day.

They were located at 130-132 Chambers St., but in the early days also had outlets on Broadway and on 6 the Ave. They also had a Baltimore office.

Brand names used by this company include: "Blue Grass", "F. B.", "Keystone Rye", and "Private Stock."
