1941 SPIEGEL SPRING/SUMMER CATALOG
SPECTACULAR and all original 1941 SPIEGEL, INC. spring/summer full seasonal catalog. World War II: an era of patriotic fervor. Everything had ALL red, white & blue AMERICAN flair as demonstrated by the merchandise illustrated in this catalog. 591 pages of classic 1940's fashions, home furnishing items and other general department store items. Catalog complete. Great for historical design research. Womens, mens & childrens fashions, railroad & fashion watches, bicycles, furniture and furnishings, sporting gear (including a full layout of vintage fishing gear & lures), tools and so much more. Outstanding period illustrations in the tradition of J. C. Leyendecker. Significant reference for 1940's style & trends... a time of national spirited sensitivities: Mom & Apple Pie!
This larger format SPIEGEL catalog has large pictures and extraordinary illustrations, showing more detail and includes many fabric samples! (See notations on the photos below) In general SPIEGEL catalogs tend to be more stylish and fashion forward, in both clothing and in home furnishings compared to Sears.

We have a collection of literally hundreds of catalogs and we can say unequivocally that this catalog is far superior to most. For those interested in men's wear of the period, this is an exceptional research tool. All original 1941, NOT a reproduction, eBook or CD.
