I believe it's actually the "Bailey Bros. *Building* & Loan Association". I think the jewellery chain name is likely a coincidence. The primary pun is probably the movie reference, knowing Okrand. -- De'vID
Thanks for the correction. I record all suggestions made on this list, but the “It’s a Wonderful Life” reference is much more likely. --Voragh From: De'vID Sent: Tuesday, March 27, 2018 3:40 AM On 26 March 2018 at 15:18, Steven Boozer <sboozer@uchicago.edu<mailto:sboozer@uchicago.edu>> wrote: PUN: 1) the jewelry chain Bailey Banks & Biddle 2) Bailey Savings & Loan from the movie "It's a Wonderful Life" I believe it's actually the "Bailey Bros. *Building* & Loan Association".
