Well, here's an ad for a well-known Lorain pharmacy that enjoyed a long run. In fact, the full-page ad for Kutza's Pharmacy – which appeared in the Lorain Journal on November 28, 1957 – celebrated the store's 50th Anniversary.
I did a post about the history of Kutza's back here in 2012, which included a nice photo of some of the pharmacy's vintage medicine bottles courtesy of Jack Tiller. There's also an interesting posted comment about the building left by a gentleman named Ted.
The business was located at 1302 Broadway. The building survived the construction of the Frank Nardini Underpass – but just barely.

My Aunt Glenna worked there for a while, probably in the Forties.
I grew up here, my parents having owned it as Broadway Discount from 1970 until 1981. We lived in the back and rented out the 2 upstairs apartments. I could tell you several experiences of how haunted this building was while living there. One of those being that we kept a white German Shepherd there as a guard dog, yet he would always growl towards the basement for some strange reason. My mother once cooked a ribeye steak and set it on a plate at the base of the stairway and the dog refused to go downstairs to eat it, only growling incessantly as if only he could sense something we couldn't.
