The City Ice and Fuel Company

The City Ice and Fuel Company
The artificial ice company Peter Diemer originally founded became the City Ice and Fuel Company following a series of mergers after his tenure as owner. It was considered 'artificial' ice because it was made in large refrigerated factories rather than harvested in natural environments as was the case with ice captured and sold during the Ice Trade of the nineteenth century. | Source: Cleveland Memory Project, Cleveland State University Library Special Collections
