ISAAC GREENSPON MANUFACTURING COMPANY

In 1911 the Isaac Greenspon Manufacturing Company started manufacturing candy and bottling Ciders, and soda at 374 Bluefield Avenue.(2) Isaac Greenspon, who was partnered with Solomon Kwass and Norman Kwass in the Greenspon-Kwass Ice Company of Pocahontas, VA in 1910, is the owner of the operation. Solomon Kwass and Norman Kwass would later operate the Kwass Bottling Works on the same property in Pocahontas. The company concentrated on the manufacturing of all flavors of soft drinks during the summer months and Ciders and Candy during the winter months.(2) The company is last listed in the 1919-1920 city directories at 145 Bluefield Avenue.(1)

This is the location of the Isaac Greenspon Manufacturing Company of Bluefield as it stands today, I think I can safely say, that although modified, this is the original building.
