Figure 1.--This is a page from the Simpson's 1946 catalog. The garments look like back to school Fall fashions. |
Simpson's was one of the most important retail stors in Canada. Unfortunately, we have only limited informatiuon at this time on the store. A Canadian reader has provided information on Simpson's. We do not know a great deal about the store, but notice catalogs in the 1920s. Simpson's became Simpson-Sears. Simpson's had main stores in Toronto and Montreal. The suburban mall branches became Simpson-Sears and then Sears. Sears then bought Eaton's. The Montreal store became a branch of Simons, a Quebec City department store. We do not know a great deal about Simpson's producr line, but we have added a few pages from Simpson's catalog to the HBC Canadian catalog archive. Hopefully our Canadian readers will provide us some more details about the company.
