1973 Geneva Convention Boutique Summer Sale Postal Card Lincoln Park Chicago IL: $9.95
Geneva Convention was a small clothing boutique on Geneva Terrace in Chicago\'s Lincoln Park neighborhood, stocking sample sizes 5, 7, and 9 aimed at younger, slimmer shoppers chasing the latest trends.
This card sells through humor rather than a straightforward pitch. It spins a fake news bulletin about a reporter chaining herself to the shop\'s door to be first in line, all to push a 20 percent off summer sellout starting June 28.
By June 1973, Lincoln Park was full of small independent shops fighting for the same customers, where a clever postcard like this one could do more for foot traffic than any newspaper ad.
