Alfred de Pinna - Facture d'A. De Pinna, 394 Fifth Avenue à New York (1898)

La maison Alfred de Pinna est située au 394 Fifth Avenue à New York en 1898. La maison faisait apparaître sur ses factures la mention "From Regent Street, London". Les factures présentaient les activités de la maison : "Specialites in boys' and children's clothing, ladies tailor made garments, boys' English bats." Dans un numéro de novembre 1918 de l'édition continental de Vogue, une publicité de la maison De Pinna porte la mention "Founded 1880 London" et le texte suivant :"At our more select schools it is customary for the boys to observe certain minor formalities of dress not alone in the classroom but in the evenings and on Sundays as well. As these matters of dress are adapted to a large extent from the requirements obtaining in the great English Schools such as Eton, Harrow, Rugby and Black Heath, correctness is essential. It is part of our service to be cognizant of these requirements and to be able to advise with our patrons as to the proper and complete outfitting of the boys."
