GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Set your phone down with a nod to Bergner's, a retailer founded in downtown Peoria in 1889. P.A. Bergner & Co. grew from a six-floor flagship with departments and services ranging from Fine China to a tea room into a regional store group with a changing corporate story. This foldable mobile phone display stand is a practical desk accessory for shoppers and collectors who enjoy exploring the history of department stores, from the 1957 Sheridan Village opening to Bergner's online chapter.
P.A. Bergner & Co., known as Bergner's, was founded by Peter Alan Bergner in downtown Peoria, Illinois, in 1889. Its six-floor red stone flagship featured a tea room, millinery, cobbler, and Fine China department. A second Peoria store opened at Sheridan Village in 1957; during 1961–1973, it led U.S. department stores in merchandise sold per square foot. The chain expanded across Illinois in the 1970s, acquired Springfield's Myers Brothers in 1978, and bought Boston Store and three Gimbel's locations in 1985. In 1989, it acquired Chicago-based Carson Pirie Scott, creating a five-state retail group. After filing for bankruptcy in 1991, the company emerged in 1993 as Carson Pirie Scott & Co. Proffitt's acquired it in 1998. Bon-Ton bought Bergner's and its Northern Department Store group in 2006. Bon-Ton ceased operations in 2018, closing the remaining Bergner's stores. CSG Generation acquired Bon-Ton's intellectual property that year; BrandX.com, Inc. acquired those assets in 2021, and Bergner's became an online retailer. The downtown Peoria store closed in 1986, and its building was demolished in 2000.
