Disneyland Windows > W. F. Allen, M.D.

Location: Fortuosity Shop, Main Street USA, Disneyland.

When Disneyland opened in 1955, the Upjohn Company sponsored a pharmacy on Main Street (where the Fortuosity Shop is currently located). W. F. Allen wasn't actually a Medical Doctor, instead, he was an executive for the Upjohn Company. W. Fred Allen joined Upjohn as a salesman in 1924. He worked his way up through the company and in 1946, Allen was elected an Upjohn Board Member, named a Vice President and was promoted to Director of Sales. In 1956, Allen added the title of Upjohn's Vice President of Domestic Pharmaceutical Marketing. Allen retired after 44 years with the Upjohn Company.

W. Fred Allen died on December 17, 1975 at the Harold & Grace Upjohn Community Nursing Home in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
