Phillip Frankel & Company was a "ready-to-wear" men's clothing store that was located in Harpers Ferry from about 1858 to 1860. A former business partner, Bernhard D. Hirsh, continued the business until about 1865 when the building burned. By about 1881 the building was rebuilt and a clothing store was operated by brothers Gabriel and Joseph Myers. During the latter part of the 19th century, Victor Kaplon, a brother of Abraham Kaplon of Harpers Ferry, operated a clothing store in town. Abraham Kaplon and his family were the only Jewish residents who lived in Harpers Ferry long-term.
