For almost one hundred years, generations of New Jersey customers flocked to Bamberger's. From its grand Newark flagship to numerous suburban locations, the store was hailed for its myriad quality merchandise and its dedicated staff. Its promotional events were the highlight of every season, from the Thanksgiving Parade to elaborate Christmas festivals featuring celebrities such as Bob Hope, Carol Channing and Jerry Lewis. Though the once mighty flagship closed in 1992, Bamberger's is still fondly remembered as a retail haven. With vintage photographs, interviews with store insiders and favorite recipes, nationally renowned department store historian and New Jersey native Michael J. Lisicky brings the story of New Jersey's Greatest Store back to life.

Industry Reviews

"New Jersey said goodbye to its homegrown department store chain, Bamberger's, 30 years ago, but its impact on how North Jersey shops, and how retailers sell, are very much present today. Bamberger's shaped the suburbs of North Jersey and the rest of the state by proving, starting in the 1950s, that the giant department stores found in cities could play in places such as Paramus." The Bergen Record
