The 1913 Galicia Business Directory. Submitted and compiled by Leon Gold
This list first appeared in Volume 7, Number 3 of the Spring 2000 edition of "The Galitzianer", the newsletter of the Gesher Galicia Special Interest Group
The 1913 Galicia business directory, "Skorowidz Przemyslowo-Handlowy Krolestra Galicyi" published in Lwow in 1912, is organized in two sections, industry (przemysl) and trade (handel). Each section is divided by type of business or trade. Within each business type there is a list of towns where these businesses existed and below each town are the names of those involved in these businesses. I have organized those names that appeared to be Jewish for the town of Przeworsk. The business headings in the directory are in Polish. For the purpose of this article I have listed the names alphabetically by town.
