A few licks and the mightiest log is driven clear to rockbottom. That’s exactly what happens when the Fahey-Brockman Merchandising Machine smashes down on the usual retail prices for men and young men’s clothes. It’s all right for leading American makers to produce fine clothes to retail at prices ranging from $35 to $55 per garment. That’s according to Hoyle and the average retailer must sell them at these or higher prices. But—the Fahey-Brockman System slaps these prices down to rockbottom right off the bat. We take these finely tailored clothes and sell them at $25, $30 and $35—each and every day in the year. Here’s how we do it! a. LOG: a, apa TI 7 | | | Fahey-Brockman believe in rock- | | bottom prices all the year ‘round instead | | of occasional periods of frenzied sales. | We never juggle prices for the simple | reason that we believe in playing square | with everybody. Marking goods high | | enough at the beginning of a season to | | cover a mark-down later on doesn’t sound | | on the level to us. Therefore we price | our clothes at the lowest figures at which | they can be retailed. Laie F-B Clothes Are Good Clothes Remember this! Fahey-Brockman Guaranteed Clothes are good clothes—no mistake about that. Fabric for fabric—tailoring for tailoring—style for style F-B Clothes are equal in every respect to clothes sold elsewhere (upstairs or down) at prices ranging from $10 , to $20 higher than our famous standard prices. Get that clear! Others : may sell clothes at the same figures—but they cannot wedge the same sterling qualities into these prices without going broke. The mounting daily sales’ records of the Fahey-Brockman stores prove that beyond doubt. We Eliminate Waste The Fahey-Brockman System hammers down prices by eliminating waste. We enjoy the tremendous advantages of unlimited buying power. That spells rockbottom prices at leading factories with _ every cent of the makers’ selling expense cut out. It also means quantity and cash discounts. Shipping direct to our stores wipes out “In-Between” Tolls...... Quick Turnover and Great Volume add to the smashing effect of the wallop we give to high prices to begin with. Then Low Overhead gets in its fine work enabling us to sell distinctly superior clothes at prices which no competition can touch.
