Everything You Buy at
JCPenney Is Guaranteed
When you receive your purchase,
examine it carefully. If it does
not meet your expectations, return it to us and explain what is
wrong. We will exchange it if you wish-or we will refund your
money (or credit your account) with appropriate adjustments for
transportation and handling charges.
Specific JCPenney Warranties.
Some of your most important
purchases from JCPenney are covered by our own warranties
that protect you from basic defects in the merchandise and from
failure in use. These specific JCPenney warranties are fully
stated in the catalog where the items are described-with the
exception of two concluding paragraphs which are quoted here:
"For the addresses of JCPenney facilities in your area, refer
to your local telephone directory. If there is no Penney, J. C.
Co., Inc. listed, write to J.C.Penney Co., Inc., Product Ser–
vice Department, Warranty Div., 1301 Avenue of the Amer-
icas, New York, N. Y. 10019.
·
" This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may
also have other rights which vary from state to state."
The two paragraphs quoted above are an official part of every
JCPenney warranty.
·
Regular Guarantee.
If your purchase from us does not carry a
specific JCPenney warranty, it is covered by this regular guar–
antee:
After you have used your purchase,
if it does not live up
to everything we have promised for it, or if it does nGt give you
the service you expect during the normal life of the item, please
let us know the facts in the matter. Return the item if that is
convenient-if it isn't, just say so and we will advise you what
to do.* We will make a proper adjustment in cash, credit, mer–
chandise, or repair of the item. Whichever it is, you can count
on us to do what is right and reasonable.
Manufacturers' Warranties.
Merchandise warranties which are
.offered by the manufacturer or distributor of an item (rather than
by JCPenney) are not published in this catalog. The existence
of such a warranty is always noted in the description of the
item, and a copy of the complete warranty statement may al–
ways be obtained by writing to: J.C.Penney Co., Inc., Product
Service Department, Warranty Div., 1301 Avenue of the Amer–
icas, New York, N. Y. 10019.

What Price-and when?
Prices in this catalog
become effective on August 27, 1977. Many
prices continue in effect for almost a whole year, till August
12, 1978 (notices printed in this catalog identify the "long-life"
pages for you). Some items are offered at savings that have a
cut-off date of December 24, 1977, and a notice on the page where
the item is sold will tell you so. All other prices are subject to
change starting January 28, 1978.
You always get our lowest current price.
If we reduce a price from
one catalog to another (as in our sale books) you pay the lower
price during the period when it is in effect-even if you have
ordered at the higher prk:e. You don't even have to know that the
price has been cut! If you send us too much money, we auto–
matically refund the overpayment. When merchandise is re–
turned, the refund or exchange will be based on the price charged
at the time you made the purchase.
We will fill your order
from any of our expired catalogs as long as
we have the merchandise in stock. You will be charged the price
that is in effect when we receive your order. The price may have
reverted to its former level or it may have been altered by the
publication of a new catalog.
For a Larger Selection of Merchandise
Whatever you're shopping for-clothes, gifts, something for
family or home-if you
can't
find it in this catalog, look in our big
Fall '77 Catalog. Index starts on page 779.
Send Gifts to a Friend
Write carefully the name and address of the person you wish to
send gift(s) to-don't forget Zip Code. In each Gift Parcel we en–
~lose
a slip with your name as sender, and a Merchandise Re–
turn Form. No price is shown.
JCPenney Home Colors
Now it's easy to use color in home decorating-no more wonder–
ing " will these colors go together." Because every time you
choose one of the JCPenney Home Colors in home furnishings,
you can be sure that all shades in the same color " family" will
harmonize. Read about it (and see all the JCPenney Home
Colors!) on page
1224
in our big Fall '77 Catalog.
"Our Lowest Price
..."
Some items in this catalog are offered at "Our lowest price ever"
or some other variation of "Our lowest price ..." All of these
statements refer
fo
pricing in Penneys two big general catalogs
(Spring
&
Summer and Fall
&
Winter), our two seasonal catalogs
(Summer and Christmas), and all sale catalogs except the over–
stock clearance events called Budget Watchers Sale. These
statements do not include pricing of the same merchandise in
Penney stores.
"No-Iron" Means "Permanent Press"
When it's " no-iron," it's easy care! " No-iron" is the term we use
to describe fabric items with a "built-in" smooth, wrinkle-free
look. Just machine wash, and tumble dry for best results.
(If
you
prefer not to tumble dry, a little touch-up ironing will probably
be needed.)
To be sure the entire item will give really satisfactory no-iron
performance, Penneys Merchandise Testing Center checks every
detail-seams, sewing thread, linings, zippers, even buttons.
And you can be confident that the no-iron feature will last for the
life of the garment.

Federal law requires that all children's sleepwear (sizes Oto 14) be flame- The 100% polyester and 100% nylon fabrics that our catalog describes as
