GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
This First Union T-Shirt celebrates a corporate name that shaped banking across the Eastern United States. From its 1908 start as Union National Bank in Charlotte to its rapid interstate expansion and 2001 Wachovia transition, First Union represents a memorable era of financial growth and consolidation. Wear it as a conversation piece for banking veterans, Charlotte history fans, corporate-brand collectors, and anyone who remembers the familiar First Union name from the pre-Wachovia years.
First 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.
