EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of New York City in the early 20th century. The sign and storefront for Clemons the tailor stand proudly, illuminated against the night sky on January 6,1917. The image, taken by William Davis Hassler, showcases a bustling retail scene with its array of lights and signs. The shopfront exudes an air of sophistication as it displays an assortment of finely tailored suits. It is evident that Clemons catered to those seeking high-quality clothing during this era. The attention to detail in the craftsmanship can be seen even in this monochromatic print. As one gazes at this snapshot frozen in time, they are transported back to a period when tailors were revered for their skillful artistry. This photograph not only captures a moment but also serves as a window into American fashion history. It is worth noting that this image may have been commissioned by the United Electric Light & Power Company, possibly as part of their promotional efforts. However, regardless of its original purpose or commercial use, it now resides within the collection of the New-York Historical Society. In conclusion, Hassler's photograph immortalizes Clemons' tailor shop and offers us a glimpse into New York City's vibrant retail landscape during the early 1900s.
