GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Make long drives and busy days a tribute to J.M. Fields, the department store chain that grew from Salem, Massachusetts across the eastern seaboard. After Food Fair Corporation purchased the business in 1961, many newer stores stood beside its grocery locations, sometimes joined by interior passageways. That memorable shopping format and the chain’s wide range of departments remain part of its retail story. This travel mug is suited to road trips, workdays, and collectors who enjoy carrying a piece of local shopping history.
J.M. Fields was a discount department store chain based in Salem, Massachusetts. Its roots went back to Enterprise Stores, an early-1900s business founded by Massachusetts partners Phillip Feldman and Samuel Glass. In the early 1950s, Feldman’s son Joseph M. Feldman took over the stores with Hy Glass and George Glass. Joseph chose the J.M. Fields name to avoid an association with any political, cultural, religious, or national identity. The partners pursued expansion, and by 1961 the chain had about fifty stores. Food Fair Corporation purchased the growing business that year. J.M. Fields expanded from New England along the eastern seaboard, from Maine to Florida. Many newer stores were built beside Food Fair grocery stores, with interior connections that let shoppers move between the two without going outside. The department stores offered clothing, housewares, sporting goods, electronics, and lawn and garden merchandise; some locations also had separate automotive centers. In 1965, the home office moved from Boston to Food Fair’s headquarters in Philadelphia. When Food Fair filed for bankruptcy in 1978, J.M. Fields stores closed. Former locations in the Northeast later became Kmart, Jefferson Ward, and Caldor stores, while many Southern locations were taken over by Kmart.
