News article details

Klein bought the place in 1972 from the original owner, Bernard Becker, who opened the store at 4744 N. Western in 1943. They cut a deal that included having Becker continue to work at the pharmacy for a year. "He was 70 and nearing retirement age, but he wound up staying on with us for three years," Klein says. "People always ask me why I didn't change the name. Well, Becker's had a good reputation, and everyone knew the place as Becker's. So it didn't make sense to change it."
