We know very little about this store other than it was a large Paris store on the Rue Auber during the 1930s. A 1939 ad offered mens, youth, and boys clothing. The ad showed a sports jacket and long pants for the young man, a knickers suit for the youth or teenager, and a short pants sailor suit for the boy.
