“Like No Other Store in the World” (Bloomingdale’s)

In 1976, with the opening of its Washington. D.C. store, Bloomingdale's began its memorable advertising campaign, declaring itself to be "like no other store in the world."

Typical New York!

Come see for yourself why Bloomingdale's is "like no other store in the world."
