Members of the Boscowitz and Rubin familes stand in the Star
Bakery store surrounded by loaves of bread. Pictured from left to right are
Rudy Boscowitz (Boscoe), Elya (Eli) Rubin, Eva Boscowitz Rubin and Sam
Boscowitz (Boscoe). Located at 2744 West Colfax in Denver, Colorado, the
Star Bread Company (operating as Star Bakery) was founded by East European
immigrants Eva and Jacob Boscowitz in 1907. After her husband's death in
1909, Eva Boscowitz continued to operate the store, later marrying another
baker, Elya (Eli) Rubin. The boys changed their names to Rudy Boscoe and Sam
Boscoe, eventually taking over and operating the business until the
1970s.
