Interior of Baker's Men's Shop at Lakewood Center. Brothers Donald T. and Le Roy Baker would be celebrating their Lakewood store's grand opening on November 15, 1951. They already had a clothing store in downtown Tacoma on Broadway but were seeking to expand to the growing neighborhoods of Lakewood and beyond. Both stores carried a large selection of quality clothing including suits, topcoats, hats and shirts. "Personal service with nationally advertised brands" was the Baker brothers motto. The Lakewood Center store was managed by Darrell M. Sanders. (TNT 11-14-1951, C-12)
