After Lewis closed shop, I believe his nephew tried to make a go of it, but didn't succeed.

They say the internet 'never forgets' but searching via Google, searching on this forum and also on the Aristo forum. I couldn't come up with the right keywords to get any hits.
I'm sure more than one person here will know what I'm talking about.

What I wanted to know is the name of that firm and the years (or months) it was, sort of, in business.

Thanks,
Knute

It was called "Polks Generation Next".. Google that, a lot will come up..
Looks like it lasted about two years, 2014 - 2016.

Thanks Scot,
One of the first things Google brought up is this interview with Scott Polk.

Great plans but not much actually materialized

Oh, he got screwed... but he tried... Kader screwed him, and his uncle indirectly.

How so? What was Polk's/Aristo's/Kader's relationship?
