In the early 1920s, Philip Nashkin founded the Nashkin Cloak Co., located on Superior Avenue in Cleveland. He closed the business when he retired in 1958. Nashkin began performing plays, monologues, and comedy routines in 1912. He became much sought-after for performances, both in Florida and in Cleveland. Most of his performances were in Yiddish. Nashkin was devoted to the Yiddish language, and he helped found the Yiddish Kultur Geselschaft (Yiddish Cultural Society) of Cleveland. The collection consists of correspondence, obituaries, newspaper clippings, and a scrapbook. http://norton.wrhs.org/collections/view?docId=ead/MS5133.xml Wed, 01 Jan 2014 12:00:00 GMT
