GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Carry a piece of American business history with this Lehman Brothers backpack. From H. Lehman's 1844 dry-goods store in Montgomery to cotton trading, New York brokerage, and a long Wall Street presence, the name reflects an unusually wide corporate journey. It is a fitting everyday carry for commuters, students, travelers, and collectors drawn to finance history. The 2008 bankruptcy makes the Lehman name an especially recognizable marker of a consequential financial era.
Lehman Brothers began in Montgomery, Alabama, where Henry Lehman opened the dry-goods store H. Lehman in 1844. After brothers Emanuel and Mayer arrived, the business became Lehman Brothers in 1850. The firm accepted cotton as payment and developed a cotton-trading operation; following Henry's death in 1855, the remaining brothers continued in commodities trading and brokerage. A New York branch opened at 119 Liberty Street by 1858, and the headquarters later moved to New York City. Lehman helped found the New York Cotton Exchange in 1870, joined the New York Stock Exchange in 1887, and underwrote its first public offering in 1899. It merged with Kuhn, Loeb & Co. in 1977, was acquired by Shearson/American Express in 1984, and was spun off by American Express as Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. in 1994. Lehman filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on September 15, 2008. Barclays acquired major North American investment-banking and trading operations, while Nomura acquired franchises in Asia-Pacific and parts of Europe and the Middle East.
