READ FROM THE BOTTOM UPLike the Previous Horsman Doll post from the BUSINESSES-TRENTON South Trenton folder comes this comprehensive article from the Trenton Chamber of Commerce "TRENTON" magazine. Since the arrival of the dictatorship down in Cuba and the Castro regime took over, Cuban Cigars have become a rarity in America. The Henry Clay and Bock Company is long gone as is the cigar factory. The fabulous building is still there, now an apartment complex.

- Thanks for the Cigar Factory and Doll Factory history. I grew up on Reed Ave. off Lalor. My grandmother was Mary Manziano, nee Episcopo, who lived at Ferry and Center Sts. Her father had an ice cream concession at White City as well as a store in the neighborhood.
