I wasn't able to turn up much info other than a few listings showing Grossman as a maker of ginger ale (1912–16) and some sale listings for their Hutches. Any additional details welcome.

I worked down in Philadelphia many times. Good people. For work, wish it was for pleasure but it is what it is.
