Society Brand is the name of a line of suits manufactured by Alfred Decker & Cohn of Chicago. The company was founded in 1902 by Alfred Decker and Abraham Cohen. The company incorporated in 1919.〔 After 1913, the company was located in The Alfred Decker & Cohn building (subsequently known as the Society Brand Building) at 416 South Franklin Street in Chicago. The building was built in 1912-1913 by Graham, Anderson, Probst and White. The company advertised extensively in various magazines and newspapers, using the slogan ''For Young Men and Men who Stay Young''. The example shown is from a 1913 ad in Collier's Magazine. In 1919, Society Brand started delivering some of its merchandise to retailers outside of Chicago via two dedicated airplanes (Curtiss Jennies) that had the name "Society Brand Clothes" painted prominently on the fuselage.〔 Service included nearby cities in Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin. 〔 Operations ceased in 1920. Society Brand was acquired by Hartmarx in 1952. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Society Brand」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
