General Info

Merit Albums is a family-run business and always has been from the very beginning. Started by Max and Phyllis Polansky in 1956 in Massachusetts, later moving the company to a small location in Reseda, California. The business was later sold on January 1, 1985 to Violet and John Bosak, Sr. when the Polansky's decided to retire. Violet worked with Max and Phyllis for five years while learning the business. John, however, bought his photographic supplies from the Polansky's for many years for his wedding and portrait business. Because the Bosak family has been in the photographic business for most of their lives, we know all aspects of the photographers needs. And as a result, we have celebrated our 50th Anniversary in business just last year. ( actually in 2006, but who is counting? ) Since we are beginning our 51st year, we are continuing the tradition of offering our customers impeccable service with top-notch quality merchandise. We offer Topflight, Renaissance, Tap, Flora, Elite, Regal, and Viva Digital Flush Mount Albums. When calling Merit Albums, you will be talking to the owner or a family member. With twenty-seven years of experience, Violet is the best sales lady around. She knows her products like no other, has a great sense of humor, and aims to please everyone. John is an expert imprinter and is said to be the best in the nation. He also has a great sense of humor and enjoys helping our customers. Their daughter Sandy handles the scrapbooking part of the business. With her very creative talents and skills, she offers a great array of product knowledge and helpful advice. Their son Ken has extensive experience in the photographic industry not just as a photographer, but also as a lab-technician. He has worked for four different professional photo labs over the past twenty-six years and has extensive knowledge in the custom framing field. Our NetworkSolutions is a SiteSafe secure website.
