Economic Merchandisi Sells Fahey -Brockm< Standard Prices © Things don’t just happen in merchandising. There’s always a | reason or a flock of reasons.

You can pay $10 more for a suit or an over- coat than F-B Prices, but the extra $10 will not buy superior clothing value. Of course, shrewd buyers save that extra ten. That’s why we have 60,000 customers. The day of mass production has arrived in the men’s clothing business just as it has arrived in the hat and shoe business as well as the motor car business.
