Keep notes close with a nod to Wisconsin department-store history. Boston Store’s story began in Milwaukee and reached shoppers across the state as the business expanded and changed hands over the decades. From branches in Wisconsin communities to its eventual online return in 2018, the name reflects a distinctive chapter of regional retail. This sticky note pad suits former customers, local-history enthusiasts, and collectors who enjoy remembering the stores that shaped everyday shopping.
Boston Store was a Milwaukee, Wisconsin-based department store whose history included changing owners, regional expansion, and several corporate restructurings. Philip Irving Stone ran the business through the 1920s and 1930s. In December 1933, 600 of its 1,000 employees took part in a white-collar union strike. Julian Simon’s control was sold to Federated Department Stores in 1948, which opened branches in Wisconsin cities including Oshkosh, Sheboygan, and Manitowoc. Bergner’s acquired the business in 1985 and moved its headquarters to Milwaukee. In 1986, Boston Store acquired three former Gimbel’s branches in Milwaukee, Madison, and Wauwatosa. Bergner’s later added Carson Pirie Scott and Donaldson’s, operating stores under several regional names. After Bergner’s filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 1991, the organization emerged in 1993 as Carson Pirie Scott & Co. Proffitt’s acquired it in 1998. Bon-Ton Stores completed its purchase of Boston Store and other Northern department store banners on March 6, 2006; some Milwaukee-area Younkers stores were rebranded Boston Store. Bon-Ton’s stores closed in 2018 after liquidators won an auction. In October 2018, Boston Store returned as an online retailer under an agreement allowing CSC Generation Holdings to use Bon-Ton and subsidiary rights.
