I was doing a Cambridge English Advanced Use of English Part 2 test today, when I came across the following sentence in a text:
The first mass-produced versions, made by Sam Foster _______ Foster Grant fame, were sold in the 1920s in US seaside resorts.

Is this a fancy way of saying famous for because I can't find any references to this structure in Cambridge Dictionary or Merriam Webster?
