Synopsis:
GOOD STUFF CHEAP! The story of Jerry Ellis (Gerald Elovitz), who - when he didn't have a job and sorely needed one - inadvertently created the legendary BUILDING #19, Inc - New England's laziest, messiest "department" store! Here's Jerry's story, as told by his daughter, Linda Elovitz Marshall, and illustrated by the famous Building #19 cartoonist Mat Brown. Read, remember...and reminisce.
I wrote this book for my father…and presented it to him on his 90th birthday. It made him so proud. It makes me so happy that he got to see it. My father passed away two months later. Through this book, my father’s story, his kindness, and his generosity is available to future generations.
