    Ferdinand Schaller and Tony Weber open a German butcher shop

    Ferdinand Schaller had trained as a butcher and sausage maker in Stuttgart, Germany. He came to Yorkville in 1937, met Tony Weber, and the two opened Schaller & Weber on Second Avenue that year. The family-run shop, now led by Schaller's grandson Jeremy, still sells German-style sausages and meats at the same address.
