Description: Founded in 1917, Katz Drug Stores were more than a place to pick up prescriptions or cigarettes - they were where memories were made and friendships and romances blossomed. A trip to your neighborhood Katz store meant enjoying a burger and shake at the soda fountain with your sweetheart, or going with your dad on a Saturday morning to get a comic book for you and fishing tackle for him. Or visiting their legendary pet department to look at the alligators, parrots, and monkeys for sale, but ultimately feeling satisfied if you went home with a hamster or a goldfish. “Let’s go to Katz” was a common saying around Missouri. This design is based on some 1947 ad art and includes the famous "Katz pays the tax" tagline.

By 1984, PayLess Drug Stores was the largest independently owned and operated drug store chain in the United States.
