Eastern Illustrating founder Herman Cassens suffered a heart attack in 1945 that prompted him to slow down, although he continued to run Eastern until 1947.
He sold the business, building, name and stock to Alton Crone for $7,000 in 1947.
On June 17, 1948, at the age of 72, Cassens died of heart failure at his home on Northport Avenue.
