In 1881, C. A. Selzer opened a business, on lower Euclid Avenue, that was the show place of Cleveland.  It was stocked with imported china and glass, silver, furniture, furnishings, and decorative art that made it a veritable museum of the Old World.  Selzer later moved his famous galleries to the Hickox Building, then to the Bulkley Building, and they were eventually taken over by the George Bowman Company.
