    In a '51 flood pic, I see a large mfg company that looks like it says "HELMERS MFG CO" or HELMERG MFG CO".

    Do any of you know which is correct? (Or is neither correct?)

    I need to create a sign for it ASAP, and was wondering what is the correct name?

    Thanks in advance.

    According to the Information that I have given to me by Rick McClellan it is Helmers and was a steel business.

    I did an internet search. Helmers Mfging was headquartered in Leavenworth, KS. According to the website they opened a seven story facility in KC. They manufactured "furniture and barber chairs".

    The Helmers building in the West Bottoms was their furniture warehouse/showroom.
