Keep your notes close to a memorable chapter of Denver history with this Spiral Notebook celebrating The Denver Dry Goods Company. Established in 1879, the business grew from a local dry goods store into a regional retailer, changing names and ownership as shopping in Colorado evolved. Its long downtown presence and motto “Where Colorado Shops With Confidence” remain strong links to the city’s commercial past. A fitting notebook for journaling, planning, or collecting thoughts about local history, department stores, and the stories behind familiar brands.
The Denver Dry Goods Company began in Denver, Colorado, in 1879, founded by Michael J. McNamara and L. H. Flanders as M. J. McNamara & Company. Their business roots reach back to 1876, when both worked as clerks at a Denver dry goods store. McNamara formed a partnership with Edgar H. Drew in 1877; after Drew left two years later, Flanders joined as co-owner. The business was purchased and renamed The McNamara Dry Goods Company in 1886, opening under that name on October 11. In 1893 McNamara transferred ownership to Dennis Sheedy and Charles Kountz, and the company was reorganized as Denver Dry Goods Company in 1894. Its downtown Denver store, built in 1889, was expanded in 1898, 1906 and 1924. The company later became part of Associated Dry Goods, which expanded its stores in the Denver area and other locations, including Billings, Montana. May Company acquired it as part of Associated Dry Goods in 1986. Nine of 12 locations closed and were sold; the remaining three became May-Daniels & Fisher stores in 1987. The original downtown building was converted to apartments in 1994.
