The toy business is in its very volume an important
feature the three Gimbcl Stores will sell a third of a million
-dollars worth of toys in December alone. The business
justifies sending buyers on more than ten-thousand-mile
trips and in asking the influence and help of embassies.
This will be the Christmas of Bounty.
And while money prosperity is not the whole measure
of progress, it docs help when wc can splendidly provide
for our children and friends.
" Comecome to the biggest, brightest, jolliest toy store
that you ever saw. -
Little folks shall ride on real live Shetland ponies.
Ten thousand things that "go" from airship to sub
marine and everything that can go is going.
Welcome!
The whole store is bright, brilliant and bountiful
gaitcd to. the good serving of the Five Million People in
Philadelphia's Prosperity Zone.
Carefulness, dependability and the Store's whole effort
to lead in value-giving. Great volume of business is the
Gimbei idea and "most for the money" makes your
patronage deserved.
Eighty experts choose the lines of goods wc sell each
a specialist, with no hampering details to worry. Just to
search the markets of the world for interesting, useful things
for our public.
To those having charge accounts at Gimbels: Present
purchases are charged on bill to reach you at New Year's,
so the present earlier Christmas shopping is justified.
