Merry Christmas from Kline's

Here's three Christmas-themed vintage ads for Kline's, the well-remembered Downtown Lorain department store.

The first ad (below), a playful one promoting Berkshire stockings, ran in the Lorain Journal on December 20, 1955.

The second ad (below) dates from December 24, 1956 and features a very Disneyesque Santa Claus.

And lastly, here's one from late December 1961 (below).

Look for my special series about the history of Kline's shortly after the holidays!
