    History- (edited from company website) The story of Hart Schaffner & Marx is an American story. In 1887, two immigrant brothers, Harry and Max Hart, scraped together just enough money to open a men's clothier in downtown Chicago.

    Through hard work, savvy innovation and an unwavering commitment to dressing men in high-quality clothing produced in the USA, the brothers grew their company into one of the largest suits manufacturers in the world.

    They claim to be the first to introduce suits tailored for different body types, zipper trousers and tropical-weight wool suits.

    Condition- This ad is in excellent condition and measures 10 ¼ x 13 ¼.
