Company Names, addresses, dates:
The Guggenheim Co, 209 11th NW (1925-1927)
The Guggenheim Co, 3301 K NW (1928-1934)

Notes:
Herbert Guggenheim (b.1885, d.1953) ran the Guggenheim company, at times with help from his younger brother Sydney Guggenheim (b.1887, d.1928), who was listed as the secretary-treasurer when he passed away in 19284.
The Guggenheim Company name seems to have replaced the previous company name, the G & G Bottling Co , after a lawsuit over it's similarities to the "C&C" trademark by the Cantrell & Cochrane LTD company from Ireland.
Herbert Guggenheim was also the proprietor of the Christo Bottling Co from 1917-1927, which was at the same address as this company.
Prior to that (and prior to prohibition hitting Washington DC), Herbert and his brother Sydney were in the wholesale wine/liquor business - see Sydney Guggenheim.
In 1930 Herbert was still listed as president of the company, but the 1931 directory listed hime as the vice president. The 1934 directory listed Milton S. Kronheim as the president of the company, with Herbert still as vice president. But the 1935 directory lists Herbert as the manager for the Milton Kronheim Estate. Herbert was never listed in the bottling business after 1934.
