The story
It is the late 1940s and early 1950s and much has happened to the family of Polish Jewish immigrant Sam Krichinsky since he first arrived in America in 1914 and eventually settled in Baltimore.
Neighborhoods are changing, with more and more families moving to the suburbs.
Wallpaper has been Sam's profession but his son Jules Kaye wants to try his hand at opening a large discount-appliance store with his cousin Izzy Kirk.
