Schiller's Camera

Põhiandmed

William Schiller emigrated from Germany to St. Louis hoping to find his future in the new photographic plate business. In 1892 Schiller’s Photographic Supplies first opened their doors in St. Louis on Broadway near the location of The Gateway Arch. Mr. Schiller became widely recognized for his perfection of dry photographic plates, the leading edge of photography at that time, and began to sell them through his new business.

As St. Louis grew, so did Schiller’s. Expanding through several locations until the early 70’s when the store moved to its current location on Manchester Road. Throughout this time Schiller’s served commercial and recreational photographers through many changes in the industry from color film to high end digital photography and desktop publishing. Schiller’s has been around about as long as photography, always pushing the leading edge of technology allowing the photographer to create stunning images.
