from Hollidaysburg, Altoona, and Pittsburgh. Theater owner I. C. Mishler, department store magnate William F, Gable, and contractor W. V. Hughes were among the bank's founding stockholders. Until the present Altoona Trust Building was completed, the bank leased temporary offices in the Blumenthal Building at 1128
