However, I should point out that Frederick and Nelson ceased to be locally owned in 1929, when it was bought by Marshall Field (the same year, incidentally, that the Bon was bought by what is now Macy's), and Rainier Brewery was bought by a Wisconsin company in 1977. As for Tully's, doesn't it count as local, having been founded here, and still being headquartered here? Interesting, and I agree with most of what you say.
