Pill & Puff

Pill & Puff stores, founded by Al and Lou Stein, originated in Milwaukee on Wisconsin Avenue.
The stores, and became a familiar site throughout Milwaukee in the 70s.
 We remember them for their distinct and attractive orange signage
The stores were a niche retail concept and started the trend in the Midwest.
We love the subversive and counterculture context of the Pill & Puff name today compared to its original intention of appealing to mainstream customers.
A great read on Pill & Puff and retail business in the old days by Sanford Stein can be found here:

Gelndale's Family Fun Center

OnMilwaukee.com did a great story on classic Milwaukee Bowling lanes not too long ago.
The photo from this article reminds us all of the beacon that was the Echo Bowl sign.
My parent's home was just a block behind the lanes. I spent a million hours inside and out.
This is the reason Remember The Tees is still here. This one connection.
