Marshall Field and Company

Leslie Goddard will present her lavishly illustrated talk about Marshall Field and Company, Chicago’s leading department store for more than 150 years, at the Palos Park Public Library on Wednesday, May 4th at 7:00 pm. Photographs, postcards, menus, and memorabilia trace the store’s cherished traditions – from chicken pot pie and the Walnut Room Christmas to the State Street store’s legendary window displays.  She will also cover innovations such as registries, personal shoppers, escalators, book signings and, of course, Frango Mints.  Register for this program by calling the library at (708) 448-1530 or visit the library online at http://www.palosparklibrary.org/programs.htm .  The library is located at 12330 Forest Glen Blvd. in Palos Park.
