Norfolk’s Greatest Home Furnishers: The Story of Phillip Levy & Co. and The Granby Phonograph

Christopher James Stoessner

In Norfolk’s Greatest Home Furnishers, author and researcher Christopher J. Stoessner tells the story of Phillip & Harry Levy, early Virginia merchants who founded Phillip Levy & Co., a well-known furniture store in early twentieth century Norfolk, Virginia. Upon success, the Levy brothers opened branch locations in several cities throughout the South. Following an unexpected tragedy in January of 1919, Stoessner’s research focuses on Harry Levy’s endeavor into talking machine production in Newport News, Virginia. The story is told in vivid detail and leaves no stone unturned in this almost forgotten part of Virginia and business history. Whether you are an antique phonograph collector or a history enthusiast, this is a must read!
