THE WAY WE USED TO SHOP AT CHRISTMAS
Vintage advertising just gets us in the mood for Christmas. Back in 1951 you could get a snazzy shirt for $6.00. Do they still make Van Heusen shirts?

Canada is much more expensive than the States. Piss me off.

Not really, the shirts are mostly made by slant eye’s today with some made in the tropics and many marked “Made in Italy” but none in actuality.
Patrick
Oh REta. Nice tailored shirts are always at least that.

The ad is a cutie! I was at a partie two nights ago and somehow a man there I didn’t know wound up telling me his shirts are $160! I almost swallowed my cranberry sauce in a gulp of shock!

Van Heusen dress shirts are still sold at JC Penney everyday. Nice shirts. $25.00-30.00usd

If you look in local shops (ie: not Wal Mart) you may still find deals like this. We have a local store that has sold quality clothes and linens for generations…no one goes there anymore but if they DID they’d find Italian shirts (like above) on sale for $10 down from $80 AND that includes a matching tie! I bought 5 for Christmas and I’m done now ;-p
Strom
The brand is still around…then they were made in America
Patrick
Six bucks for a shirt?!!
How much was a hooker and a bottle Stoli?
