Review by Dappered Arts and Culture Correspondent Ben Madeska
The story of John D. Rockefeller and the Standard Oil Company is the story of modern America, the modern world. As perhaps the wealthiest private citizen in history, Rockefeller set the bar for modern capitalists, utilizing every advantage he could find, legal and less-than-legal, to destroy competition and maximize profits. Along the way, he established the first trust, one of the largest and richest multinationals in history, and many business practices still common today. A towering figure even among the other tycoons of his era, Rockefeller viewed his work as putting order to chaos and had no patience for those lacking vision who stood in his way. Competitors, and increasingly the public, viewed him as a tyrant.
Plus a restock (no sale) of a favorite USA assembled dive watch.
It's nice when a brand warns their customers in advance of raising their prices.
Spring ready sneakers, grooming goods, watches, etc. Saddle up. Amazon's spring sale is on.
New sportcoats. Italian desert boots. J. Crew dips their promo-toes into spring.
From de-scaling irons to shining shoes to smelling coat pits. Let's clean up our act.
New Seikos are on sale, and J. Crew's Suit event is expiring soon.
