FIND: Old Federated & May Co. Department Store Giftcards

(THESE ARE NOT MY PICTURES AND I DO NOT TAKE CREDIT FOR THEM)

          I have come across some pictures from a Flickr contributor that seems to be an owner of something others would typically use as gifts to purchase goods of interest with and then discard, but more of you that just this person probably wish you would have kept, the gift cards, bags, and receipts from all the former beloved department stores around the country prior to 2006.

          Just to show how common each chain was to one another, the ad's on TV all used the same jingles, the fonts of the logo's was all the same, and particularity the sales fliers and gift cards came in the exact same pattern, ALL one chain under multiple names.

Filene's

Kaufmann's

Robinson+ May

Marshall Field's

Meier & Frank

Seems to be the complete Robinson+ MAY memorabilia collection.
