Red River Valley Amateur Radio Club
Amateur Radio in and around the Red River Valley Area of Northeast Texas
Tagged: Neiman Marcus Saks Dallas Amazon
All,
On this Independence Day I don’t know how many Paris area hams have shopped at Neiman Marcus, but all of you likely know of its Dallas heritage. When I was a kid local news used to routinely interview Stanley Marcus, whose father and aunt had founded the store in 1907. So, this Wall Street Journal article – Saks Owner to Buy Neiman Marcus—With Help From Amazon – Retail rivals to combine in $2.65 billion deal to woo luxury shoppers – caught my eye. The link is a free one so please read it if the topic interests you at all.
Enjoy,
Phillip Beall (W5EBC)
