i worked at Ah Men from summer ‘79 until spring ‘80. i had graduated from Vassar in June ‘79 and moved to LA. Ah Men was the first place i went into looking for summer work, and the manager offered me a job. i’m terrible with names but i remember faces well, no good here. i worked with an Eddie from Silverlake, Rob (the manager) from WeHo, i remember a Don that did the books i think, a Roy i believe too. I remember Michael and Eddie from the mailroom. we had some hysterical times there. Ah Men during the day and Probe at night. hello and love to anyone/everyone out there still. i became the artist i always talked about.

I enjoyed many items from this store. Wish they were still in existence.

Is the store still open? I also bought many things in my younger days. My favorite was also the sheer jumpsuit with a black bikini

I am very interested in buying corvette stretch terry jumpsuits for men.

Please let me know if anyone can tell me how to find them.

Thanks,

Hi Lise,

Is Don still alive? I am 51 now and he would hang out out our pool above Sunset Plaza when I was 11. Just for something to do, I would address his mailings. My last contact with him was addressing correspondence to him as “the last home on Peavine”. My mother, Zoe, and he were fabulous friends. If he is alive, Please mention my name to him. I remember him with very fond memories.

my partner was one of the founders of ah men and when i was a young hayseed he would take me to the store and i could have pretty much anything i wanted. his name was ray long and i believe he was a partner of don cook’s once. bud gaveaux also worked at the store. it feels good to write their names. i’m going to be in la on may 12th 2009.

I like the kind of Jack Kirby-esque illustration in the lower left corner the best.

I vaguely recall the 60s but I’m pretty sure these never caught on.

Add a black undershirt and boots and you’ve got the technician uniform from the original Star Trek.

Wow, a whole 8 years before Logan’s Run came out.
