Adams Clothes, Cherry Hill Mall NJ 1963

This authentic 1960s colour photograph, captured in 1963, showcases the inviting storefront of Adams Clothes within the Cherry Hill Mall in Cherry Hill, New Jersey. The archival image features the store’s wide, open-front design, characteristic of early enclosed mall architecture, with large cursive script signage mounted on a white brick header. A central focal point is the seasonal display at the entrance, which includes a vibrant orange autumn tree, wood fencing, and mannequins dressed in mid-century men’s tailored suits and sport coats. Inside the shop, rows of dark suits line the left wall, while the right side features glass display cases and shelving for accessories. A shopper in a red patterned top and shorts is seen walking past the store on the mall’s flagstone-style flooring. Adams Clothes was a prominent regional men’s apparel chain that became a staple in East Coast shopping centres during the mid-20th century. While the Cherry Hill Mall has undergone significant modernization and the original Adams Clothes storefront has long since been replaced by new retail tenants, the mall remains a primary commercial destination in the region. This factual record preserves the creative merchandising and classic men’s fashion retail experience of the early sixties.
