• Delete There's this [1], descendants of the founder's company mentioned here? Not really enough to keep the article. What's used for sourcing now is a single source, not helping notability. Oaktree b (talk) 20:20, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak Keep It appears that some sources (esp. older ones) refer to the company as variations of "A.P. Erker & Bro Opticians". I've added a number of references which provide varying degrees of information but given the age of this company there is a strong possibility that sources may only exist in print.

• Keep - there is enough history and referencing (found by HighKing) to support notability. - Indefensible (talk) 16:12, 20 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
