Old Catalog Scans! 1923 and 1924 Steiger's Department Store
Hello everybody!...
Forrest Flanders here again for Old Catalogs..
This week I have scanned 2 old department store catalogs from the Steiger’s department store.
In case you didn’t know, Steiger’s was a Springfield, Connecticut-based department store that was famous for it’s high-end fashion merchandise. Like many of the older department stores, Steiger’s was acquired by another leading department store, the May Co., in the mid-1990’s.
I have “camera” scanned two of their really older catalogs from 1923 & 1924….They are short, with both running 16 inside pages plus front and back covers. Both are Spring catalog issues.
For the camera scans go to:
1923 Steiger’s http://flickr.com/photos/oldcatalogs/sets/72157604289426791/
1924 Steiger’s

I hope you enjoy them and, by the way, you might want to check out an excellent blog devoted to old retail chain stores…It’s loaded with photos of scores of old retail chain and discount stores including some nice stuff on Sears…Check it out at this URL:
