A few short closed tears but in remarkably fine condition and complete, with the errata slip and all the samples in wool, worsted wool blends, serge, flannel, cheviot, cashmere-wool blends, and more. All the samples are clearly marked with the prices and availability along with specifications and recommendations. We have been unable to locate another copy for this or any other year. It is the most delightful and well produced salesman's sample catalogue for men's suits, overcoats and Street Railway Motormen & Conductor uniforms. It offers invaluable illustrated historical reference for the colours, styles and fabrics of the time (when the price of wool was running high). All the fabrics were manufactured in Rochester, and there were salesrooms in New York, Chicago and Cleveland. The firm was founded by Henry Michaels (1822-1894), one of Rochester's earliest manufacturers of ready-made men's clothing, and would become the longest-lived and largest independent clothing company in the town, lasting 128 years. In 1877 Michaels reorganised the firm with his son-in-law Morley Stern, and by 1885 it was trading as Michaels, Stern & Co. Their seven-story building at Clinton Ave & Pleasant remained the headquarters until 1977 when the company was dissolved.
