The address 717 E 8th Street no longer exists. Damon Campagna said back in December 3, 2012 in a comment on Ephemeral NY’s posting of this fading ad that “Stanton is part of what used to be called the monument district; it’s possible this is an ad for a headstone company.”

According to Michael J. Lisicky in his book Gimbels Has It (History Press, 2011), Bloomingdale’s was regarded as “the uptown Macy’s” until the 1950s. The well-known slogan “All Cars Transfer to Bloomingdale’s” appealed to a wide range of customers who also shopped at Gimbels and Macy’s. Founded in 1872 by Joseph and Lyman Bloomingdale, the “everything to everybody” store started becoming more upscale in 1955 when it started buying higher end fashion items to service the chic clientele of its neighborhood.
