Default When did Peck become Peck & Snyder
Posted By: Hal Lewis

According to the ads in my Beadle Dime Guides...

the 1867 versions say "Andrew Peck & Co., 105 Nassau"


while the 1868 versions list:

"Peck & Snyder, 105 Nassau"



This is consistent with the NYC directories from that time as well.


Peck & Snyder obviously merged with each other at some point in 1868... probably early in the year before baseball season when the dime guides came out.
