GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Settle into a BellSouth heavy knit quarter-zip sweatshirt that nods to a company central to the story of Southeastern communications. Created after the 1984 AT&T divestiture, BellSouth united Southern Bell and South Central Bell roots, then moved through the FastAccess DSL and Cingular Wireless years before joining AT&T in 2006. This piece suits telecom collectors, former employees, and fans of Atlanta-based corporate history with a strong regional connection.
BellSouth was an American telecommunications holding company based in Atlanta, Georgia. It was formed on January 1, 1984, after the U.S. Department of Justice required American Telephone and Telegraph Company to divest its regional telephone companies. The new company held Atlanta-based Southern Bell and Birmingham-based South Central Bell, reconnecting much of the Southeast's telephone service under one holding company. In 1992, South Central Bell and BellSouth Services were merged into Southern Bell, which became BellSouth Telecommunications. Southern Bell and South Central Bell remained customer-facing names until 1998, when BellSouth became the sole brand. BellSouth offered telephone, internet, wireless, directory, and related services across nine southeastern states. It launched FastAccess DSL in 1998 and joined SBC's wireless business in 2001 to form Cingular Wireless. AT&T acquired BellSouth on December 29, 2006, following its March announcement; Cingular services moved to the AT&T name and BellSouth Telecommunications began doing business as AT&T Southeast.
