In February of 1945 there were wonderful ads for the local Penney's in the Steuben Republican.
It seems as if they were anxious for spring as well as spring blouses were advertised for women for $2.98. You could also get 'pretty blouses' for girls at $1.98.
Did you need a new blazer or jacket? $8.90.
What about an all-wool coat for a man? Just $12.75.
Penney's was located at 223 W. Maumee St. in Angola, Indiana. It is currently the Then and Now Antique Shop. Next time you go in, keep in mind the clicking of heels on the wooden floors from women shoppers.
And that is The Voice of Angola, 1945.
