This is my first time posting, the impetus of which is some pretty neat news. I recently realized that my maternal grandfather, and great-grandfather, Harold and Joseph Ravitz, respectively, owned a broom store on 134 Ludlow street, a mere block away from the Samberg/Fisch shop at 178. In the posted picture, my grandfather and grandmother Harold and Lillian Ravitz are pictured in front of their store. Anyone recognize it? Maybe the two were commercial nemeses but vowed that one day their descendants would get married.
