Montgomery Ward Commercial

Montgomery Ward Commercial from early 1990's. Prices reduced to low prices everyday. Guess that didn't work out too well...

Somebody else uploaded this before me.

if they had been able to hang on they would be doing so well in this day and age

From before 1992, as Montgomery Ward had changed its logo to a modernized font late in '92, and then referring to themselves as "Wards" from 1997 to its demise in 2001.

@SpringCredits5 It closed in March 2001 and came back as an ONLINE store in June 2004.

So it would be:

Is Montgomery Ward Closed Down?

It Closed Down at Mar.2001 - Apr. 2004.

Now Montgomery Ward is Back at June 2004 - but only online. Would be nice if it reopened.

i dislike over--priced pennys and hope it closes. i never saw target until the mid 1990s. montgomery ward did open some stores in the suburbs in the early 1980s but they closed quickly as they were considered outdated even then. i still liked Wards. the employees told me General Electric owned it and did not want to support the store back in 2001 when they closed.. at the site of my two favorite wards stores are now a target and a walmart who have the same old things year after year

@The096757 Target has been around in the midwest sense the early 70's. Besides that Monkey Wards competition was with Sears and J.C. Penny(who today is barley hanging on). what really killed Montgomery Wards was there refusal to move to suburbia with the middle classes in the 1950's and 60's, after that the company changed hands a lot until the recessions of the 80's and 90's killed it off hard.

@pannoni1 The font is called Serifa.

15 June 1989 the day victor french from little house on the prairie died.

@pannoni1 And, that logo still exists! Montgomeryward[dot]com still survives as online only.

@joebradio It was called the ITC (International Typography Corporation) style fonts that were popular, but quickly fell out of use during the early-mid '90s.
