Fieldcrest Featured In
‘Sidewalk Promotion’
Fieldcrest products were featured in
a novel display of bed and bath fashions
recently in two different parts of the
country. It was a “Sidewalk Promotion,”
which created a lot of interest and ex
citement from Illinois to Georgia.
In two cities, bed and bath ensembles
were shown in a carnival atmosphere of
gay and colorful bazaars along the main
street. Our Country Flair collection was
a major feature along with many other
Fieldcrest items.
“Conversation Piece” chemise dress
es, worn by the salespeople, were made
from Country Flair, Field Flowers, and
Rose Border towels. These unique fash
ions, identified as “modified chemise,
draped sack-look, or subdued trapeze,’’
were real traffic-stoppers, and stimulat
ed many impulse sales.
In Rome, Georgia, the Belk-Rhodes
Company put on the show, while Kline
felter s made headlines in the local news
paper in Pittsfeld, Illinois. The Rich
mond Dry Goods Company and Hibben-
Hollweg, two of our fine Distributor ac
counts, worked with these promotions
respectively. ’
