It throve so well that in 1929 she moved to 107 Bank Street. A large house with a bay window on the front, windows to the floor. Marian used to trim this bay window area. Mrs. Johnson used to make regular buying trips to New York where she would occasionally comment on a design - say this nech not over night - that the belt-line should be moved. She was asked to join a dress firm as a consultant, but refused because would have meant too much time in New York. Mrs. Johnson was a dressmaker and designer of her own creations, and even after her shop opened, made many wedding dresses. Marian had gone with her husband [which see] to Herkimer. After five years of marriage she became pregnant and the doctor, diagnosing a rare blood ailment, recommended that her husband bring her to Batavia. There the parents installed the Artman's in upstairs quarters, and Marian became her mother's assistant. When Jay was born a was woman hired to take of him. Marian tended the shop, occasionally blacking out and having to lie down for a short while, but she had a second child successfully and healthily. Marian took over the buying trips to New York, introduced to the work shops by two local milliners, Killian and Eveland. They found a buyer for her and shared a hotel room. Buyers like Marian sat in little booths with a notepad and the models paraded past, stopping before each booth to twirl and show details. When the out-of-town buyer had made her decision her buyer would bring the clothes she had chosen for a closer look and perhaps change of opinion.

Johnson, Florence (cont) buyer would take her back to the warehouse for items needed immediately, and would then ship them the next day. Her mother hated this part of the business but Marian seems not to have. Customers were the two Mason wives, Lena and Alice, and Alice's daughter after her. Mrs. Bertrand was extremely self- conscious and would allow no one in the dressing room with her. Mrs. Max Pies was also a good customer. Mrs. Johnson did not like to wait on Mrs. Pies and would leave her to Marian. Once or twice a year Mrs. Pies would have a box packed and set to Russia, to which Marian would add clothes left unsold in the shop. On one occasion Mrs. Pies gave Marian a string of cultured pearls from Francis & Mead in appreciation. On another occasion she gave her a coffee table from the store. Very Generous. People would bring Mrs. Johnson a list of clothes children headed for college would want. Dr. Gemmell, then in Buffalo, would bring a group of teachers from UB once a month or so for shopping. Marian remembers Dr. Chenny Spofford in the shop for a dress. Jay would have nothing to do with the shop but Charles loved it. At 5 he would try to help and when the shop had its Dollar Day Sales grandmother would let him sell hats. He would submit to washing, brushing, and dressing to use his salesmanship. The ladies loved to have him give his judgement on hats. He had his personal charm and salesmanship that young. Mr. Johnson lost both legs and had to go to Hilltop Sanitarium. Mrs. Johnson became ill and had to give up her part in the shop. Elmer Artman, who had opened his own insurance and real estate office died suddenly. Marian was accredited as a realtor, not as an insurance agent because she feared the math studying for insurance agent would entail. James Corbett advised her to keep the insurance business because she had two sons who would grow up to help her. So she applied herself and became accredited as an insurance agent. She sold the shop. Everything was put on sale and the shop closed. Marian says she remembers the figure $5,000 which she thinks was the sum from the sale. This was in 1943. In New York when she could get near the Neiman-Marcus buyer - a young and discerning young woman - she would often order what N-M was buying. Dr. Johnson's sister, an old school friend, went with on one buying trip, but went back to the hotel - buying too confusing.
