Does anyone have any information regarding an Electrical Wholesaler and Retailer known as Carter Electric? Their main store was located downtown on Columbia, in the first block east of Woodward, on the south side of the street, next to the original location for the Gem Theater / Century Club. They had up to 7 locations throughout the Detroit area at one time. Chuck Forbes was the last owner, the building was demolished for Comerica Park. They were a very prominent Electrical supply house for the area, selling everything from light bulbs to contractor supplies. They even had their own hand drawn catalog, probably about a hundred pages. Any information or pictures would be appreciated. I believe I have found one grainy picture, but nothing else. Thanks in advance!
