THEN AND NOW: Feldman Baking Co

Here is a view of Feldman Baking Company in November 1935.  It was located at the corner of Division and Edgar in the former Jacob Baker & Sons building.

Here is that same view present-day.  The bakery was later bought out by Colonial Bakery and the surplus building was storage.  It was razed around the mid 1980s likely for a Berry Plastics addition
