To the Editor:
Kapler’s Pharmacy in Beach Haven celebrated its 75th anniversary on Nov. 27, with carriage rides, sweets and drinks and music outside. I was there, along with Kris Anderson, buying local history books from Steve Dodson. And I’ll bet Kris and I were the only two people attending who were there 75 years ago. But the pharmacy is even older. It was once Paxson’s, as this 1940s Christmas photo in my book Island Albums shows.
