Irby-Mayes Ad With a Cameo by the Merc — 1948
Landmark alert!
by Paula Bosse
An ad with the famous local building making a cameo.
It’s called PLATEAU
…the wonder fabric by Pacific Mills
that’s so perfect for our Texas weather. Suits of
[redacted??] look like regular weight worsted
…yet can be worn most every month of the year.
A new shipment exclusive at Irby-Mayes.
I love this 1948 ad. Irby-Mayes was located — where else? — in the Mercantile Bank Building!
