To mark the end of summer, 118 new pages from the Chicago Mail Order Co. catalog for spring/summer 1931 are published today—previously only 38 pages were online. In vogue were forehead-revealing hats for women and dresses with calf to ankle-length skirts. Low prices were referred to everywhere in the catalog—the decline in demand led to deflation in 1931, which was clearly reflected in the catalog prices.
