Newscopy: "This new Moss store at Fifth and Market-sts, 51st in the chain, is a far cry from the small glove shop in the old Baldwin Hotel that gave rise to the chain in 1887. Three months of construction work and $150,000 went into the rebulding (sic) of the two-floor area for the new store, which features children's wear, costume jewelry and an expanded sportswear department in addition to the established Moss lingerie, hosiery, gloves, blouses, purses and foundation garment departments."
