S L. Gordon
Custom tailor to men of fashion, Stewart Building, 465 Geneva Avenue, Dorchester
One of the leading representatives of the fashionable custom tailoring interests in Dorchester is S. L. Gordon, whose establishment is in the Stewart building, 465 Geneva avenue. Mr. Gordon began business nine years ago in the same location and the store has come to be looked upon as a permanent landmark of the locality. Mr. Gordon is an acknowledged expert in his department of industry, and his patrons include some of the most carefully attired men in the community. He always has on hand a complete assortment of the latest and newest effects in fine material, both imported and domestic, and guarantees the perfection of workmanship, style and fit in every garment he permits to leave his store. He also does cleaning, repairing and altering in the most skilful manner and for low prices. In fact, the charges which he exacts for all of his work are moderate in the extreme, and there is no reason why any man should be badly dressed in Dorchester, so long as Mr. Gordon remains in business.
Mr. Gordon was born in Germany, but he has been a resident of Dorchester for many years and is a thorough American in all of his tastes and sympathies. Ha is patriotic and public spirited in the extreme and is a devoted son the place of his adoption, no native of the district having a greater affection for it than he has. He is still in the prime of life and an active energetic worker.
