I'm almost positive I remember a store named BESTEN and LANGAN in downtown Louisville. That would have been in the 1940's. Bill (born in '36) Horine

I also remember that store in the 1930s, we used to simply call it Bestens. There was another store not in the Louisville book, The John C. Lewis Co.; it was a very nice ladies apparel store I believe on corner of 4th & Liberty Streets. It went out of business in the early 1930s during the depression. >BESTEN and LANGAN in downtown Louisville. < That would have been in the 1940's. Elisabeth W. Salyer elws@mounet.com
