Take Cleveland retail history along with a Sterling-Lindner-Davis backpack inspired by the city’s once-busy downtown shopping district. The store brought together established businesses and adopted its combined name in 1951, welcoming generations of shoppers to Euclid Avenue before closing in 1968. Its story also includes a decorated Christmas tree tradition dating to 1927. A distinctive pick for local-history fans, Cleveland commuters, and collectors who enjoy carrying a reminder of the Theater District’s department-store era.
Sterling Lindner Davis was a major department store in downtown Cleveland's Theater District, formed from Sterling & Welch, Lindner Co., and W. B. Davis Co. Sterling & Welch dated to 1845. Lindner & Davis was acquired by Allied Stores in 1947; Allied then bought Sterling & Welch, and the combined store became known as Sterling Lindner Davis in 1951. The store operated until 1968, closing amid the growth of malls and outlets. At its height, it was part of Cleveland's prominent group of six downtown department stores, alongside May, Higbee's, Bailey's, Taylor's, and Halle. Shoppers came to Euclid Avenue for goods ranging from clothing and jewelry to furniture and housewares. The retailer was especially known for displaying what was described as Ohio's largest decorated Christmas tree, a tradition begun in 1927. The tree tradition is sometimes associated with another Cleveland store in the 1983 film A Christmas Story, but the supplied source attributes it to Sterling Lindner Davis. By the end of the 1990s, none of Cleveland's big six remained in operation.
