TAKE ME TO GOLDBERGS - 1970's

Staying in the Murraygate a little bit longer, here's a couple of adverts for Goldbergs dating from the early/mid 70's.
Goldbergs were quite trendy for a department store, especially for school kids, but unfortunately they haven't got a particularly inspirational selection to choose from in this ad.
I mean, boring old grey trousers (yawn).
Mind you, they do have cat-suits on offer which were pretty hip... but 75p... not likely to be like Suzi Quatro's then!
That advert is dated 1972.
The King Kong ad is dated 1974, and looks a bit like a Terry Gilliam illustration.
Their slogan was "Take Me To Goldbergs" which made it seem like everyone was chauffeured there!

GOLDBERGS - MURRAYGATE - 1970'S

Goldberg was a clothing shop the size of a department store and was to be found at 11 Murraygate, near the corner of Commercial Street where John Menzies were.

It was quite short-lived at this spot really, just there during the early 70's to mid 70's period.

Unlike other department stores, it didn't just sell standard everyday style clothes, it was actually surprisingly fashionable gear they had. The gents/boys dept was upstairs and items I can remember getting from here for example were a yellow & white paisley pattern shirt, psychedelic kipper tie and 2-tone trousers!

Still being at school however, meant I was only allowed to wear this kind of groovy stuff at weekends!

The ad from '72 says Goldbergs with an "S" but the shop front says Goldberg without the "S" - so take your pick!
