Name/Title
Saks 5th AvenueDescription
There are many references to backgammon being enjoyed on the commuter rails to New York City -- one imagines people sometimes missed their stops. The second ad announces the installation of Grosvenor Nicholas as president of the Saks backgammon club. Many of the major department stores established clubs -- not just to to promote their backgammon equipment, but to draw the right sorts of deep-pocketed, free-spending people into their stores.Publication Details
