Introduce young Cleveland fans to a memorable chapter of their city’s story with this Sterling-Lindner-Davis kids tee. The downtown department store was formed from earlier Cleveland retailers and adopted its combined name in 1951. Its Euclid Avenue home welcomed shoppers looking for clothing, jewelry, furniture, and housewares before the store closed in 1968. The annual decorated Christmas tree tradition, begun in 1927, adds a festive detail to this piece of local retail history for curious kids and families.
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.
