The Name

When I was a child, I always loved finding my name anywhere in the world – this was clearly not an indication of a healthy personality. When my family took a cross-country car trip, we came upon an establishment in Los Angeles called RUDNICK MEN AND BOYS. And while this clothing store has since closed, the name pretty much says it all.

I feel a kinship with all Rudnicks everywhere, and I was especially thrilled to discover a Rudnick Avenue, also in California. Here are some other Rudnicks, and while I don’t know what’s being sold in the second photo, I’m sure that it’s of Rudnick quality:
