{"product_id":"first-union-mouse-pad","title":"First Union Mouse Pad","description":"GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAdd a legacy banking reference to the daily desk setup with this First Union mouse pad. The company grew from Union National Bank, founded in Charlotte in 1908, into a leading regional financial institution through a long acquisition era that included First Fidelity, CoreStates, and The Money Store. First Union became Wachovia Corporation following the 2001 acquisition. It is a practical choice for banking professionals, former employees, collectors, and anyone who appreciates corporate history with a clear Charlotte connection.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFirst Union began as Union National Bank, founded by H. M. Victor on June 2, 1908, as a small banking desk in a Charlotte, North Carolina, hotel lobby. A 1958 merger with First National Bank and Trust Company of Asheville created First Union National Bank of North Carolina. The company added Cameron-Brown, a mortgage banking and insurance firm, in 1964 and incorporated as First Union Corporation in 1967. A 1968 reorganization established the corporate structure used until the Wachovia merger. Following the 1985 Supreme Court decision supporting regional interstate banking legislation, First Union pursued rapid expansion, completing more than 90 banking-related acquisitions through 2001. Key deals included Atlantic National Bank, First Fidelity of Newark, CoreStates Financial of Philadelphia, Bowles Hollowell Conner and The Money Store. On September 4, 2001, First Union completed its purchase of Wachovia National Bank and became Wachovia Corporation, adopting the Wachovia name and ticker symbol. Wachovia later merged into Wells Fargo in 2010.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"font-weight: 500; font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e9\" × 8\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eWidth, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e9.00\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eHeight, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e8.00\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"4\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eDepth, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"4\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e0.06\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduct features\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Smooth, low-friction surface for effortless mouse movement\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Full-front color print with bright, accurate reproduction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Ultra-thin 1\/16\" (1.58 mm) high-density foam core\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Non-slip rubber base that grips the desk\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Rectangular shape with one-sided print\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Use warm water and dish soap to clean spots off your pad.
