Maisel’s Trading Post was in the Albuquerque area and was established by Maurice and Cyma Maisel in 1939 to cater to the new U.S. Route 66 tourist trade. The Pueblo Deco building is by architect John Gaw Meem. The building features murals designed by Olive Rush. Various murals depicting Indian life were painted by ten Pueblo and Navajo artists such as Narcisco Abeyta, Harrison Begay, and Awa Tsireh. The trading post employed hundreds of native craftspeople in its heyday. It closes upon its founder’s death, only to be reopened in the 1980s by Maurice’s grandson, Skip. It continued to trade as Skip Maisel’s Indian Jewelry and Crafts, until summer of 2019, when Skip Maisel retires and closes the business. Asking 180.
