History of StarFine Furniture & Mattress
In 1907, David Goldhirsh immigrated to the United States. He landed in New York, and, after six years, moved to Galveston. He began working at M. M. Bleich’s corner grocery store. Seven years later, Mr. Bleich loaned David the money to start Star Furniture. The original Star Furniture was a “mom and pop” business, located at 414 25th Street in Galveston. The only other employees were David’s children, Simon and Frances. By 1941, business was booming, and Star Furniture moved to a three-story building at 2424 Market Street.
In 1944, Frances married Marvin J. Stein, and Marvin joined the business in 1946. Originally, he was “just going to take care of the store for a week,” while his father-in-law went on vacation. Sixty-six years later, he’s still working at the family business. Marvin and Frances’ son, Ben Jay, proudly continues the family tradition of bringing quality furniture to Galveston County. His son, Jody, joined the business in 1997, and today he enthusiastically serves as Vice-President of Sales and Merchandising.
