Abraham and Strauss, and radio history

Some of the Sherlock Holmes radio programs were sponsored by Clipper Craft brand clothing. During their advertisements, they would list some of the retailers in the New York City area who sold that brand. Among them was Abraham and Strauss. I went to work for Wolverine Toy Company in Booneville, Arkansas in 1979, and I remember that we sold toys to A&S. The name was dropped by owner Macy's in 1994, so it became a part of retailing history.
