Carry a reminder of Philadelphia's department store era with this Strawbridge's backpack. The business began in 1868 at Market and 8th Streets, founded by Justus Clayton Strawbridge and Isaac Hallowell Clothier. From its celebrated Center City flagship, the retailer expanded through suburban communities across the region. Its familiar name, shopping bags, and Dickens Village holiday display remain part of local memories. This piece brings that story along for daily outings, school days, and trips connected to Philadelphia and its neighboring communities.
Strawbridge & Clothier began as a Philadelphia dry goods store in 1868, founded by Quakers Justus Clayton Strawbridge and Isaac Hallowell Clothier. Its first store stood at Market and 8th Streets in Center City. A grand 13-story Beaux-Arts flagship, begun in 1928 and opened in 1931, later anchored The Gallery at Market East. The retailer began opening suburban branches in 1930, expanding across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware; its sales exceeded a billion dollars at its 1980s peak. After remaining independent into the 1990s, the company was acquired by May Department Stores in 1996 and operated as Strawbridge's. May was acquired by Federated Department Stores on August 30, 2005. In 2006, Macy's East assumed control of the remaining stores, the Center City flagship closed on May 23, and the Strawbridge's nameplate was phased out on September 9 in favor of Macy's. The flagship building was later repurposed for retail, offices, and other uses.
