This Bacon's Heavy Knit Quarter-Zip Sweatshirt honors a department store name woven into Louisville's shopping history. Bacon's began as Jeremiah Bacon's Dry Goods in 1845, built its grand Fourth and Market flagship in 1901, and later served shoppers from St. Matthews to Owensboro. It is a comfortable-looking tribute for collectors, former employees, and anyone who remembers Midnight Madness promotions, downtown browsing, and the end of the Bacon's name in 1998.
Bacon's was a Louisville, Kentucky-based department store chain with roots in Jeremiah Bacon's Bacon's Dry Goods, opened in 1845 on Market Street near Hancock Street. The business moved into a building four times larger in 1876, then opened its 115,000-square-foot flagship at Fourth and Market in 1901. The flagship, known for entrances on both streets and a spiraling atrium, operated until September 6, 1972, when it closed to make way for the Kentucky International Convention Center. Bacon's sons sold the store in 1903 to New York City-based H.B. Claflin & Company, owner of Stewart Dry Goods. After Claflin's 1914 bankruptcy, Ohio-based Mercantile Stores acquired Bacon's. Expansion included St. Matthews in 1953, Shively in 1956, Bashford Manor Mall in 1972, Owensboro in 1977, Louisville Galleria in 1982, and Mall St. Matthews in 1988. Mercantile Stores was acquired by Dillard's in 1998, retiring the Bacon's name.
