First edition of the complete year of Jazz Age catalogues from the Charles William Stores, which offered a treasure trove of everyday fashions, work clothes, and household and consumer goods during the Roaring 20s, offering the glamour and style of New York to the rest of the country. Their fashions were intended for the average American, with emphasis on the more "endowed" woman, and "stout" man during the Jazz Age, emphasizing chic styles, and well-woven fabrics. These catalogues detail the high grade work pants, riding breeches, denim jeans, corduroy work pants, along with triple-sewed work denim overalls and coats which could be purchased, as well as those made out of Wabash Stripe Stifel denim cloth noted for its durability. No copies located in Worldcat of Spring & Summer, 1925; 3 copies located of Fall & Winter, 1925 (Henry Ford, Harvard, American Textile History Museum).…
