Product Details & Size Guide
Tele-Communications took shape in 1968 when two commonly owned businesses merged and moved their operations from Bozeman to Denver. Founded a decade earlier, the businesses helped establish TCI’s connection to community television and microwave communications. The company went public in 1970, expanded through cable acquisitions, and became the largest U.S. cable operator by 1982. This hoodie or sweatshirt honors that journey and TCI’s transition to AT&T Broadband in 1999.
Tele-Communications, Inc. (TCI) began in 1958 in Bozeman, Montana, as two commonly owned businesses, Western Microwave, Inc. and Community Television, Inc. The companies merged in 1968, moved operations to Denver, Colorado, and adopted the Tele-Communications name. TCI went public in 1970 and expanded through cable-system acquisitions, becoming the largest cable operator in the United States by 1982 under CEO John Malone. Bob Magness, a founder and longtime chairman, remained influential in the company. TCI acquired United Artists’ remaining cable interests in 1991 and bought cable assets from Viacom in 1995. A proposed merger with Bell Atlantic, discussed in 1993 and 1994, did not proceed. In 1997, TCI merged with Kearns-Tribune Corp. On March 9, 1999, AT&T completed its acquisition of TCI, which became AT&T Broadband and Internet Services. Comcast acquired the remainder of TCI’s cable television systems in 2002. Cable assets from the AT&T transaction were also later acquired in select markets by Charter Communications, Cox Communications, Cablevision, and Comcast.
