Albert Faber Bernalillo County, New Mexico

Albert Faber, a furniture dealer of Albuquerque, was born in Germany, and came to Albuquerque in 1888. For ten years he worked for Ilfeld Brothers, at the time the leading mercantile firm in the Territory. In 1898 he engaged in business for himself as a dealer in carpets and draperies, and since the 1st of January, 1906, has occupied the new Staab block, a thoroughly modern store building with twenty thousand square feet of floor space. He carries a stock valued at $15,000, which includes furniture and general household goods. He is not active in politics, but is a firm believer in the future of the country and in the ultimate triumph of principles for its best interests, and is active in all public enterprises for the development of the part of the country in which he lives. He has, without doubt, the largest business of this kind in this section of the Territory.
