From the Chicago Mail Order Company mail order catalog for fall and winter 1929-30, 208 pages of descriptions are now available online. Until recently, only 45 of the catalog's 338 pages were accessible. When this catalog was published in July 1929, the Chicago-based U.S. mail order company reported more than four million customers who ordered their ready-to-wear fashions through the mail.

The number of public pages in the artdeco-boulevard.de database has now risen to over 2,600.

With the first update of the new year 2017, the complete 64-page issue of Modenschau No. 229 from January 1932 is now publicly available. In addition to editorial content and advertising, the fashion section of the issue was devoted to elegant evening gowns for the winter ball season and the New Year's receptions still to come. In addition, the first transitional models for spring 1932 were already presented.

As the last update in 2016, the complete fall and winter issue of the company magazine Haensel-Echo No. 10 from 1931-32 is being published today. This issue offers an interesting insight into elegant men's fashion exactly 85 years ago. As a result, more than 2,400 pages are now online.
