This 1960 Maidenform bra sketch-model has no bottoms. Not even legs. She's pretty much just a floating torso.

Wolff's was advertising this cute outfit in 1945. Depending on the colors, girls would still wear this today.

Special Sale Silks were available at Wolff's in 1935, and this is one of the more beautiful advertisements I've seen in the Nobles County Times. I wonder what it would have been like in color?

Wolff's was having an anniversary sale in 1960; it was their 44th anniversary. Great hat!

These shoes from the Wolff Store from 1935 look pretty cute. The ruffle on the illustration's dress doesn't grab me, though.
