When Kurt Epstein, beloved dean of Anaheim merchants, came to the sleepy German village shortly after the turn of the century. Anaheim had not yet adopted the face of modern living as seen in the fine stores, wide paved streets and sparkling homes of today. To the young merchant just branching into the business field, Anaheim was a village of little more than 2500 persons—plodding about their businesses afternoon in the Lindbergh Wins Pulitzer Prize With Autobiography NEW YORK — Charles A.

Two awards were made reporting; —to th e (Miss) Sunday Post-Hi- outstanding coverage" noado of Dec. 5 1953; and When Kurt Epstein, beloved dean of Anaheim merchants, came to the sleepy German village shortly after the turn of the century... Anaheim had not yet adopted the face of modern living as seen in the fine stores, wide paved streets and sparkling homes of today. To the young merchant just branching into the business field, Anaheim was a village of little more than 2500 persons—plodding about their business on board sidewalks and driving their teams of horses down muddy city streets in search of troughs to water their horses. The Anaheim of 50 years ago, to Kurt Epstein, still active in the business world, has gone places far beyond the realm of the imagination—and still is only on the brink of a future as bright as a contrast between today's merchandising and those of 1904. Summing up his long, active and fruitful business career, the jovial merchant recalled a few of the methods of transportation of the early days, both for business and pleasure. When Anaheimers desired to go to the beach, we boarded a horse-drawn trolley car here and made our way to "Loara" station of the Southern Pacific railway. Here we caught a train for Newport Beach which ran through Santa Ana and on to Costa Mesa and the Beach." Recalls Troubles Recalling the troubles young folks had when calling on their best girls in the early days, Epstein chuckled to revive memories of the early-day bicycles used by swains of the day and difficulties encountered with roads of the day. In addition, an occasional early-day auto would complicate already congested roads filled with horses and bikes. In those days," Epstein recalled, "many farmers refused to do their shopping in Anaheim because city officials removed horse troughs from Center St. for purposes of street widening. It was only after assurances were made that the troughs would be replaced, that business resumed normal operations." Anaheim's dean of merchandisers first went to work for the firm of Asher and Falkenstein, then located at the corner of Los Angeles and Center streets. At that time, leading merchants such as Oscar Renner and the late R. O. Quarron were then employees of a rival clothing organization. At this time, Anaheim boasted amount while Max Trujillo, 323 South Clementine St. lost two fender skirts valued at $30. Angeleno Injured in Speedboat Accident SUNSET BEACH — Crashing his speeding boat into a piling, Theodore May of Los Angeles was injured Sunday afternoon in the alougs back of Sunset Beach. He was taken to Long Beach Community hospital. His injuries were reported as not serious. day, Epstein recalled, was located in a drug store where Walberg's is located today. In those days, Mrs. Epstein served as relief operator on the single switchboard. Later, the board was moved and the Anaheim Post office took over the West Center St. location. "Looking back on the city of those days," Epstein mused, we had little to offer citizens in the way of recreation. Most folks around Anaheim jumped on the "SP" and went to Newport. This was before the city had any parks. Today, we're known throughout Southern California for our parks and recreation facilities the same way we're known for our fine retail stores, our off-street parking lots and our wonderful industrial progress and growth." Epstein remained with the Falkenstein organization until 1928, when he opened his own ladies ready-to-wear store. Epstein's, one of Anaheim's popular places to purchase the latest in women's styles, remained until he retired in 1947. During this time, he also opened a lattice fine ready-to-wear store in Fullerton. "Looking back on the 50 years of successful merchandising in the city of my choice, I see a steady growth of Anaheim to the present. To be sure, there were years of hard times, but the good people of Anaheim, true to their early German stock, made the most of depressions and recessions and came through with flying colors! It's due to the fine people of this city that the prosperity and future of Anaheim is assured." Epstein said. Kurt Epstein resides at 723 North Palm St. with his wife Blanche, the former Blanche Michle, a native of Anaheim. Epstein, once retired, returned to the merchandising field six years ago when asked to become business advisor to Walburg's and has remained to see his ASSURANCES were made that the troughs would be replaced, that business resumed normal operations." Anaheim's dean of merchandisers first went to work for the firm of Asher and Falkenstein, then located at the corner of Los Angeles and Center streets. At that time, leading merchants such as Oscar Renner and the late R. O. Quarron were then employees of a rival clothing organization. At this time, Anaheim boasted one bank, the First National Bank of Anaheim. The cultural life of the city revolved around its musical organization, the Anaheim City Band. This noble group of artists held their weekly band concerts in a city-owned band-stand located approximately at 173 West Center St. It was later moved West of Lemon St. before being razed to accommodate the expanding business section.
