Photograph article dated January 23, 1959 partially reads, "A colorful preview of the Yuletide season will be given Valley shoppers tonight when the newly remodeled Rathbuns in North Hollywood unveils its 19 Christmas windows. The unveiling, slated for 7 p.m., will touch off informal open house ceremonies marking completion of the store's latest expansion program. Informal modeling in all departments will highlight the event, and women shoppers will be presented with talisman roses symbolizing the store's new color scheme."
