Study the Turnover Chart. popular methods of retailing Clothes for men and young men. 1923 Models You will like our 1923 models—they’re certainly making a great hit with men and young men who like to be ahead — who appre- ciate values. Come on in and look them over! That places you under no obligation whatsoever. Paes THE_AVERAGE CLOTHIER TURNS HIS STOCK TWICE A YEAR It will help you to visualize two The solid black line represents the conservative, time-honored method. The dotted line reveals the swift Fahey-Brockman way. Observe the solid black line closely! There are two flips in it—two turnovers. Now look at the dotted line. There are six flips in it—six turnovers. Three times as many turnovers the F-B way as in the ordinary way. ot Merchandise Is Money These flips or turnovers, as you see, represent money—capital invested in merchandise. Suppose the capital is equal in both cases—say $150,000. Plainly the average conserva- tive way of retailing clothes is bound to cost more money than ~ the swift Fahey-Brockman way. In other words, all other things being equal, the clothier who turns his stock fastest is in a posi- tion to give you the greatest value for your money. But—all things are not equal. In fact, all other things are very much to the advantage of Fahey-Brockman and Fahey-Brockman customers. First: We enjoy the money-saving advantages of tremendous buying power—because we pool our buying with | the greatest retailer of men’s clothes in America— i Second: We enjoy low overhead charges—be- cause our rent is about 1-4 of what we would have to pay for the same space downstairs and because we have no costly or elaborate fixtures to “charge off”— Third: We enjoy the selling influence of 50,000 satisfied customers who know by actual test that Fahey-Brock- man Values are supreme. te Yes sir! Keeping our money on the jump saves money for you. That same process makes F-B prices possible and incomparable.
