THEE SCHILDMEIJER BLOEMGRACHT. Circa 1925.

According to Amsterdam's small neighborhood Jordaan Museum, Jacobus Cornelis Schildmeijer opened his coffee and tea business around 1925. Behind the building, he built a facility to roast his own coffee beans. The same stylized, Art Deco image appeared on the company's coffee bags (with the word "Koffie" at the top instead of the word "Thee").
