Moosetrot, I was in the fur business in the 80's and sent some fur to them. I could be mistaken since it was a long time ago. I believe the owner's name was Sid and Zach Rosenfeld and they were located in New York. I only dealt with them once so can't give you any more information than that. I'll be interested to watch this thread to see if I was remembering correctly. Good luck in your search.
57 years trapping. It's who I am. Every day is still as exciting as it was when I was a kid but a little more work.

Wissmiss, Maybe I was wrong then. The name Ralph Slenker does ring a bell though just not sure why. LOL.

United was Ralph Slenker. Very old time broker. I came up under the guy who shot a hole in Ralph's office door. Ralph had an entire city block and the biggest cold storage in New York City.
Rosenfelds were another fur brokerage business all together, equally as dangerous.
Never argue with a fool - they will drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.
