Abraham Frohsin listed from 1895-1920. Abraham Frohsin first appears in directories in partnership with Israel Siedenbach in "Siedenbach & Frohsin, Gents Furnishings", located at 7 S 8th. By 1895, Frohsin is listed as "Lager" at 712 N 13th, which was also his home address until ca. 1895, when he moved to 1309 N 13th. "Abraham Frohsin Liquors" first lists in 1904 at 28 N 13th, and continues until 1918. Prohibition seems to have killed the business and all reference to Frohsin has disappeared from 1921 directories on. Brand names used by this company include: "Dragon", and "Tower."
