Not very familiar with Wards

No Montgomery Wards in New Orleans except for a catalog store in a shopping center recently demolished. It later was moved in the mid 70s to an upper floor suite in a building that housed one of New Orleans old-line department stores(that was later bought out by Dillards)in downtown New Orleans. And yet,smaller cities in Louisiana had retail stores. The only Wards appliances I'm familiar with are the Signature applances from the 70s. We visited San Antonio regularly and visited their stores there. Never knew vintage Signature,Windsor or Airline appliances. Sears was the big store here.
 
Re: Montgomery Wards

Hi guys it's me I'm back. Some of you have said that you didn
't have a Montgomery Wards in the South some of the stores were Jefferson Wards which I remember being talked about in our store meetings. I worked for Montgomery Wards from 1980-1983. So some of the stores down south were Jefferson Wards.
Why I have know Idea. Probaly a chain that Mont. took over. The Jefferson Wards were mainly in the South East. Montgomery Wards and Jefferson Wards were the same company, and quite possably this was a model that was sold in the south,(don't know for sure but perhaps).
