There is a wonderful video, entitled "Fourth Street, Louisville's Street of Yesterday" available that will have you in tears, if you knew it in the "old days". I have bought copies on eBay for as little as $5, but when I lend them to family members, I never seem to get them back. I was recently back home, and bought a new one at Borders for $25 (NOTE: Louis Borders, the original founder, graduated from St. X in '66). Anyhoooo, the cover states that additional copies may be secured from Tim Young Productions, PO Box 22134, Louisville 40252, for $19.95 + S&H. You will not regret spending the money Walker McCulloch <wkmcculloch@yahoo.com> wrote: >Fourth St. at christmas was like fairyland.  Seems all the stores had displays, but Stewarts, Kaufman-Strauss, and out on Broadway at Sears were the best ones.  We usually ate at the Blue Boar, but there also was Horstman's Saloon on Market just W. of 4th (maybe next to Goldberg's Clothing Store) which had the best roast beef, which they would slice off while you watched and pile it on bread and cover it with gravy.  My dad and I ate there every time we were downtown together.  Mother, dad, my brother (then about age 5) and I were downtown to Christmas shop and decided we would eat in town.  I immediately suggested Horstman's.  We had barely got inside when my brother set up a howl for A Taylor's Drug Store hamburger.  You can guess who won.  I have never forgiven him for that little incident!! >   >  Walker K.
