GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Wear a piece of Seattle's financial story with this Washington Mutual men's sport polo shirt. Founded in 1889 after the Great Seattle Fire, the institution grew from a local home-lending association into a nationwide savings bank through a series of acquisitions. Its familiar WaMu identity remains closely tied to a period of change in American banking, including the 2008 receivership and the rebranding of its branches. A distinctive choice for company-history enthusiasts, Seattle loyalists, and collectors of the recent past.
Washington Mutual began in Seattle in 1889 as the Washington National Building Loan and Investment Association, formed after the Great Seattle Fire. It made its first West Coast home mortgage loan in 1890, adopted the Washington Savings and Loan Association name in 1908, and operated as Washington Mutual Savings Bank from 1917. The institution demutualized in 1983 and became a public company; in 1994 it reorganized as Washington Mutual, Inc., a holding company. A long acquisition period expanded its reach across the United States and into mortgage lending and credit cards. Major purchases included Great Western Financial in 1997, Home Savings in 1998, Bank United in 2001, and Providian in 2005. WaMu moved its headquarters to WaMu Center in downtown Seattle in 2006. After heavy deposit withdrawals in September 2008, federal regulators seized its banking operations and placed them in FDIC receivership on September 25. The FDIC sold the banking subsidiaries to JPMorgan Chase for $1.9 billion. WaMu branches were rebranded as Chase branches by the end of 2009. The holding company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in Delaware on September 26, 2008.
