William Skinner and Sons is not exactly a Chicago institution but it lists our fine city along with New York, Boston, Philadelphia and Massachusetts in this 1926 Vanity Fair ad. Ah, with all those cities, what a tangled web of satin Skinner's weaves. I am not sure if the mention of Chicago means there was a plant here or that it just sold it's products in Chicago. One thing can be said though, I'd love to get my hands on some of their past products!
