{"product_id":"lost-chicago-department-stores-leslie-goddard-9781540251275","title":"Lost Chicago Department Stores","description":"Within thirty years of the Great Chicago Fire, the revitalized city was boasting some of America's grandest department stores. The retail corridor on State Street was a crowded canyon of innovation and inventory where you could buy anything from a paper clip to an airplane. Revisit a time when a trip downtown meant dressing up for lunch at Marshall Field's Walnut Room, strolling the aisles of Sears for Craftsman tools or redeeming S\u0026amp;H Green Stamps at Wieboldt's. Whether your family favored The Fair, Carson Pirie Scott, Montgomery Ward or Goldblatt's, you were guaranteed stunning architectural design, attentive customer service and eye-popping holiday window displays. Lavishly illustrated with photographs, advertisements, catalogue images and postcards, Leslie Goddard's narrative brings to life the Windy City's fabulous retail past.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Leslie Goddard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1540251276\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781540251275\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History PR\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/31\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 178\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.44d","brand":"Leslie Goddard","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44050003591423,"sku":"9781540251275","price":41.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7baba462-6291-4a5f-befd-a9cddd421ab3.jpg?v=1685004638","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/lost-chicago-department-stores-leslie-goddard-9781540251275","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
