GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Celebrate Anderson–Little and its place in New England clothing history with this T-shirt design. Founded in the Boston area in 1918 or during the 1920s, the company became especially known for men’s suits before moving to Fall River in the 1930s. Factory showrooms later invited customers directly into the world of garment making, guided by the slogan, “The Best Factory Makes the Best Clothing.” The brand’s path through family ownership, acquisitions, store closures, and an online revival gives this design a story beyond fashion.
Anderson–Little was an American clothing maker and retailer, especially known for men’s suits. Founded in the Boston area in 1918 or during the 1920s by Morris B. Anderson and Albert Little, the company moved to Fall River, Massachusetts, in the 1930s, when the city was a textile-manufacturing center. It opened a Fall River store in 1936 and, after World War II, developed factory showrooms that brought customers directly to its manufacturing operation. Its long-running slogan, “The Best Factory Makes the Best Clothing,” reflected that approach. In 1956, its Fall River factory made 3,000 garments a week and employed more than 1,000 people. The business had 40 stores when Richman Brothers acquired it in 1966; Woolworth acquired Richman Brothers, including Anderson–Little, in 1969. In 1981, Anderson–Little introduced the Strathmore, Shefford, and Southport labels and added women’s business attire. Woolworth closed most stores in 1992, then sold the remaining business to Cliftex Manufacturing. Cliftex closed the final stores in 1998. Morris Anderson’s great-grandson Stuart and his son Scott reclaimed the brand in 2008 and launched a Miami-based, web-only clothing company. Stuart retired in 2014, leaving Scott to lead the revived business.
