M. Rosenbloom was a tailor who briefly lived in Leadville from 1887 to 1888. Unfortunately, the lack of available documentation about this man prior to arriving in or after leaving Leadville renders him a mystery.

Rosenbloom worked for two Jewish tailors during his tenure in the city: at Joseph Harwitz’s [1] store located at 111½ Harrison Avenue in 1887, [2] and at an A. Kertz shop, [3] 122 Harrison Avenue, in 1888. [4] Although his residence in 1887 is unknown, in 1888 he lived at 106 South Harrison Avenue, the same residence as his employer A. Kertz.

Rosenbloom does not appear in city directories after 1888, indicating he had left the city. His whereabouts after Leadville are historically absent.
