An old menu from the Nu Cafe found on a wall in Augusta, Wisconsin.

Heimie's

Heimie's Haberdashery occupies a prominent corner in St. Paul across from Landmark Center. Named for owner Anthony Andler's great-grandfather Heimie Andler, who ran a men's store in downtown St. Paul for seventy years after emigrating from Russia in 1917.
