Ain't Dere No More Collection
Katz & Besthoff introduced a chain of drug stores, beginning on Canal Street in 1905. K & B’s popular purple signs evolved into an iconic part of New Orleans’ landscape. Rite Aid bought the beloved K&B chain in 1997. Still to this day, many native New Orleanians lovingly refer to the color purple as “K&B purple” in conversation.
"Everytime I close my eyes blowing that trumpet
of mine – I look right into the heart of good old New Orleans
– it has given me something to live for." –Louis
Armstrong
