Excellent vintage condition. The retail enterprise was founded by Julius Garfinckle (1874-1936) in 1905 (he later changed his and the store's name to Garfinckel) and carved out a unique, high-end niche and held on to it for 85 years, cultivating generations of dedicated shoppers who depended on the store for the trendiest and classiest apparel. When Garfinckel's finally declared bankruptcy and closed in 1990, it was a heart-wrenching experience for employees and customers alike.
