State Rep. Joe Hohenstein was among the customers at the grand reopening.

Art History 101, a popular T-shirt company at 7045 Frankford Ave., reopened on Saturday, eight months after a fire heavily damaged the storefront.

No injuries were reported during the early-morning blaze.

Owner Jay Pross opened in 2010, and was given a City Council citation earlier this year from Councilman Bobby Henon for his success.

Saturday afternoon’s festivities included a moonbounce, music and cornhole. ••
