Dec. 2 – On this day in Montana history in 1941 The Billings Gazette was filled with Christmas advertisements even though Black Friday had not been invented yet. The Hart-Albin offered Satin Quilted Robes for $6.95, 3-strand pearls for $1.25, silk stockings $1 a pair and Christmas dolls from $1 to $7.95. Prices worth lining up for today.
