The early 20th century was a lit flame in the city
of New York. The 1930's brought with it a conflict
of highs and lows in the culture and development
of the Big Apple. Our economy had tanked further
than ever before, but development, culture and
music were alive and on the rise. The Empire State
building was well under way, the jazz and blues
scene had brought its spotlight to the big city with
legends such as Duke Ellington and Charlie Parker,
and among it all was the start of John D'Angelico's
84-year crafting legacy.
