I drew this a few years ago, and wrote about its history here. This store has been here in the Lower East Side of New York since 1970. I learned today that the owner, a Ukrainian immigrant named Julian Baczynsky, passed away this week at the age of 98. I didn't know him and I never shopped there, but have passed by it hundreds of times. Word is, the business will continue, which is good news.
