EL RENO OKLAHOMA SEE MY STORE: VINTAGE HARDWARE STORE COLLECTIBLES WYETH HARDWARE Founded: 1859 Closed: 1989 History: Wyeth & Co. was a wholesale dealer in hardware, cutlery, bicycles, and sporting goods and manufactured saddlery goods of all kinds. It started in 1859 in a small building on Market Square and grew rapidly over the next fifty years. In 1892, in order to afford improved facilities for the handling of the rapidly growing business of the company, a five-story building was erected at 609-623 North Second Street (outside of this historic district) or the accommodation of the general hardware business, and, in 1899, a four story warehouse was added on North Third Street. The building at 221-223 N. Second Street was purchased in 1900 to house the production of collars exclusively. Another building was constructed in 1905 to house the expanding harness and saddle business. A warehouse and barn were built in 1907 at 711-715 N. Second Street (outside of this historic district) to house the company's horses and hauling equipment. In 1909 a new six and one-half acre fireproof shipping warehouse was built at 201-211 Jules Street, which was thoroughly up to-date, efficient, and stylistically related to 316-324 N. Second Street, c. 1908. At that time, the company employed over 500 people, and distributed goods from the Mississippi River to the Pacific coast. Wyeth Hardware operated until 1989.
