Also address integrity) <br />The Stein House is architecturally significant as an outstanding example of a highly intact and characteristically detailed <br />example of a Craftsman bungalow. It was constructed in 1919, at a cost of $4,900 for Sam and Celia Stein. The proprietor of <br />a store at 210 West Fourth Street that sold books, stationery, and toys, Sam Stein was a well -liked and respected member of <br />the community. Bom in Russia in 1885, his parents immigrated to New York, and Stein came to California in 1902. His work <br />at the Lazarus Stationery Company in Los Angeles inspired him to open his own store in Santa Ana, and by 1921 he <br />employed eleven people (Armor, 1921, page 1604). Known for his apparently large "stature" and his `jollity," Stein was listed <br />in the 1920 city directory as "Stein, Sam Of Course." <br />(See Continuation Sheet 3 of 3.) <br />B11.
