Schnaitter/Sample Ice Cream and Confectionery - 230 West Main Street - View 2

Description: In 1925 Frank Schnaitter gave up the building across the street at 231 West Main and moved his confectionery into the front part of the building for wholesale ice cream production. He maintained the confectionery in the front part of the building and the upstairs was used as a residence for the Schnaitter family. In 1940 Mr. Schnaitter sold the business to hs nephew, Virgil Sample, and it was known as the Sample Ice Cream company until about 1960. At that time the building, along with the Madison Opera House and the old Crozier Building, was torn down to make a parking lot.
