RETRO: Burton's opens in Boston in 1963 with offer of free, made-to-measure suits
Here is a scene from the opening of Montague Burton’s new Boston branch 60 years ago.
To advertise the opening, the store offered free, made-to-measure suits.
In the picture, manager Paul Bright shows the cloths to Mr H. R. Harlow, with Eric Winfield looking on, while Mr J. Feneley runs the tape measure over his jacket, and John Loveley waits for Mr A. Quantrell to finish with his turn-up.
