On October 1, 1932, the two second cousins Wilhelm and Martin Ansbacher opened the textile/clothing store at Altstadt 38 (today no. 86). It existed at this location until 1935, as the two landlords (retired members of the Reichswehr) were forced by the NSDAP to terminate the rental agreement. If they refused, their pension would have been cut and they would have been threatened with further consequences.

The Ansbachers found a new home for the business at Isargestade 728. The landlord there was financially independent and was unimpressed by the threats from the NSDAP.
