Abbreviation in Berliner Adressbuch 1912

[jugen]

Hello,
as part of a genealogical search, I am looking at the Berliner Adressbücher (online). There is an abbreviated entry for someone in 1912 that I'd like help deciphering. The occupation is "Blusenfbrk" (no help needed here), and after the address and telephone numbers, the phrase [BK Comm u. Disc. Bk]. I would appreciate a correct reading, deciphering, and ideally, a translation.

[Demiurg]

I guess it means

Bank: Commerz- und Disconto-Bank

Thanks, Demiurg! What would be the connection to the Blusenfabrik? The depository of income? (not a translation question, of course)

 

[Demiurg]

It's most likely the bank where they had their business accounts.

It's most likely the bank where they had their business accounts.

Yes, "BK" stands for "Bankkonto (Scheckverkehr)" = "bank account (chequing)", see list of abbreviations on p.2 .

Thanks to berndf and to Demiurg! More will no doubt follow..
greetings,
jugen
