Harrison Brothers Hardware Collection
Description
An account of the resource
Originally establishing a tobacco shop on Jefferson Street in 1879, brothers James B. and Daniel T. Harrison moved their shop to their current location in Huntsville’s Southside Square in 1897. After the building was damaged by a fire in 1901, the brothers rebuilt and expanded their store, reopening as Harrison Brothers Hardware in 1902. After James’ death in 1908, Daniel T. and Robert Harrison, their younger brother, ran the store. In 1940, Daniel T. Harrison passed away leaving Robert the sole owner of the store. In the 1950s, Robert’s sons, Daniel F. and John Harrison, took over the store. In 1952, Robert Harrison passed away. In 1981, Daniel F. Harrison passed away leaving John Harrison as the sole owner of the store. The Historic Huntsville Foundation purchased the store in 1984, after the store closed due to John’s death in 1983. As one of the first major projects of the Historic Huntsville Foundation, the store was reopened in October of 1984 and is staffed by several volunteers. The Historic Huntsville Foundation currently continues the operation of Harrison Brothers Hardware in Huntsville, making it Alabama’s oldest operating hardware store.

We have secured from Messrs. Oblinger & Beatty, patentees and owners, license to manufacture this
marvelous invention, and are now prepared to otter the exclusive sale of this stove to live, wide-awake,
pushing dealers. No such chance will appear again in a life-time. Mankind has looked forward for years'
confident that some genius would invent a simple device for consuming the valuable gases and smoke
given off by our present imperfect methods of burning soft coal. The Hot Blast Tube, the Hot Blast Rings.
Air -lets, etc. have all been tried, but they consume only a small fraction of the gases and smoke, and no
device that permits open combustion, as these do, will ever realize reasonable expectations of the vast economy
to be achieved. Two things have been shown to be absolutely essential by the thousands of devices and
years of experiments: 1st, The gases and smoke must be confined, otherwise they will escape up the chim
ney unburned. 2d, Great heat is necessary, applied direct to the gases and smoke above the fire itself.
All appliances that have contained these essential and successful requirements have been so compli
cated and costly as to preclude their common use. All really great inventions are SIMPLE, and as
an evidence of the great simplicity of this invention no directions are necessary beyond turning the
damper i handle toward the front) when starting fire, (this gives direct draft same as if the smoke consumer
was not in the stove) in ten or fifteen minutes, reverse the damper the Bell Reflectors will then have become
hot, and the reversal of the damper will force all of the gases and smoke into the hollow red hot bell,
suspended over the fire, and then between it and the outer bell, tbe opening between the two being 'f-., of an
inch, all of the soot, gases and smoke will be consumed instantly. The roar of the gases can be heard
while burning and their combustion can be seen through the small damper in pipe collar, but best of all,
their perfect combustion, can be felt in the great heat given oil and the small amount of coal consumed.
After the Bell Reflectors are once heated the burning gases will keep tliern hot, so that a slow fire may be
kept. The black coal smoke turns white like steam as it comes from the chimney immediately after the
damper has been turned and the reflectors are hot, and as they become highly heated the white smoke Grad
ually disappears, and after the gases are all burned the coal will be found coked and will burn to light ashes
without clinkers.
Lose no time, apply immediately and get the best seller in stoves ever put forward in this centurv.

Description
An account of the resource
Originally establishing a tobacco shop on Jefferson Street in 1879, brothers James B. and Daniel T. Harrison moved their shop to their current location in Huntsville’s Southside Square in 1897. After the building was damaged by a fire in 1901, the brothers rebuilt and expanded their store, reopening as Harrison Brothers Hardware in 1902. After James’ death in 1908, Daniel T. and Robert Harrison, their younger brother, ran the store. In 1940, Daniel T. Harrison passed away leaving Robert the sole owner of the store. In the 1950s, Robert’s sons, Daniel F. and John Harrison, took over the store. In 1952, Robert Harrison passed away. In 1981, Daniel F. Harrison passed away leaving John Harrison as the sole owner of the store. The Historic Huntsville Foundation purchased the store in 1984, after the store closed due to John’s death in 1983. As one of the first major projects of the Historic Huntsville Foundation, the store was reopened in October of 1984 and is staffed by several volunteers. The Historic Huntsville Foundation currently continues the operation of Harrison Brothers Hardware in Huntsville, making it Alabama’s oldest operating hardware store.
