Also included are 26 photographs of displays at the nearby Stern's as well as 19 photographs from photography studios in Southern California including Los Angeles Long Beach and Pasadena 8 of which are identified as being from Buffum's stores. <br/><br/>The window displays in this collection predominantly feature mannequins showcasing women's clothing and accessories with a smaller number featuring children and teens and occasional ones focused on furniture or household decorations. The displays are arranged in such a way that they create abstract aspirational narratives around travel parties and leisure activities in retrospect giving historical context not to mention a surreal frozen-in-time quality to the Mid-century modern design and fashion.
