Maas Brothers was a department store located in Tampa, Florida.  Founded by Abe and Isaac Maas in 1886, they grew from a small stores to a chain of 39 stores throughout the Gulf Coast of Florida.  In 1929, Abe and Isaac Maas sold Maas Brothers to Hahn Department Stores.  In 1935, Hahn Department Stores changed its name to Allied Stores Corporation, however, the stores were still operated by the Maas family.  In 1989, now owned by Federated and Allied, they filed bankruptcy,  a couple of years later, in 1991, the stores were consolidated into the Burdines department store chain, which in turn merged with Macy's in 2005.  There are several stores still operating as Macy's.
