Yup. Then I'd just command the assistant "Do you see the suit on the dummy on the right hand side? Bring me all the colours you have of it in a 40, my man and be quick about it!"
And that's before I'd get started on the shawl collar coats you can see in the background, and the slacks - imagine the slacks!!!!

What with it being in Hackensack, you'd probably bump into the likes of Jimmy Smith and Stanley Turrentine stocking up on the good stuff in between sessions.

Nice, but I'd rather have the 59 Brooks catalogue (i.e. I would have it in 59) and sufficient funds to place a large order.

I like the way both dummies have no break pants.

Re: The Ivy League Style: The Boom Years.
I love the style descriptions, especially given that they're of the era which is somewhat rare to see.
The picture with three cats in English, Continental and Ivy style is great too. Reminds me of that Sesame Street song...

Re: The Ivy League Style: The Boom Years.
Wow. Great finds there Oliver. Apparently these were ads and the suggested copy is written on the back?
