K&B (Katz & Besthoff) Golf Towel
Bring New Orleans retail history to the course with this K&B golf towel. Katz & Besthoff began in 1905 at 732 Canal Street before growing into a beloved Gulf Coast drug store chain. Its distinctive purple presentation made K&B instantly recognizable to generations of customers. This golf accessory offers a subtle way to celebrate local pride, longtime memories, and the company name that still lives on in K&B Plaza.
K&B, short for Katz & Besthoff, began in 1905 when Gustave Katz and Sydney J. Besthoff partnered at 732 Canal Street in New Orleans. From that start, the business expanded throughout the twentieth century into a drug store chain serving the United States Gulf Coast region. Its stores became strongly associated with a distinctive purple presentation, used on signs, cash registers, employee uniforms, and other store elements; the shade entered local usage as "K&B purple." The chain sold a broad range of private-label merchandise, including household goods, liquor, and signature ice creams, and operated an independent credit card program with strict approval requirements. K&B later based its corporate operations at K&B Plaza near Lee Circle in the New Orleans Central Business District, after buying the building in the mid-1970s. The former headquarters and warehouse at 900 Camp Street was donated at the start of the 1980s for the Contemporary Arts Center. Rite Aid purchased K&B assets in 1997 and rebranded the chain, while K&B Plaza retained its familiar name.
Light, quick-drying, and built to travel with you on the course. This compact golf towel slips onto your bag with a solid gold grommet and ring, so it’s always within reach between swings.
