| TEXT | Among the proiuinent houses engaged in the manufacture of cigars in this city, we would make mention of E. & G. H. Zacharias, proprietors of factory No. 118, located at No. 723 Penn avenue, and also proprietors of the cigar store
on Smithfield street in the Central Hotel building. This house was established in 1862 by the present proprietors, at
first in a small way as a retail cigar store, but their business rapidly increased and they engaged in the manufacture of cigars, which they now carry on extensively, employing a number of hands, making both hand and mould work, ranging in price from 50 to 70 per thousand. The celebrated "Champion" brand is their specialty, it is a five cent cigar
which meets with popular favor. Their factory on Penn avenue is a three-story brick structure 14x60 feet in size.
Their Smithfield street establishment under the Central Hotel is filled with a choice slock of foreign and domestic cigars and manufactured tobacco of the finest brands. Their business at both places is both wholesale and retail, carrying an average stock of about 60.000 cigars, principally of their own manufacture with trade all over this and other States. Mr. E. Zacharias has charge of the factory and store at 723 Penn avenue, from which the wholesale and retail trade is principally supplied; Mr. G. H. Zacharias attends to the management of the Smithfield street establishment. Both brothers are natives of Maryland, but have resided in Pittsburgh for over twenty years. |
