{"product_id":"watsons-tough-phone-case","title":"Watson's Tough Phone Case","description":"GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCarry a piece of regional retail history with a Watson's tough phone case. Founded in Knoxville in 1907, Ira A. Watson Co. became a familiar department store name across Southeastern county-seat towns, later adapting to larger shopping centers and malls. The design honors the everyday connection people formed with a local store, its centralized Knoxville warehouse, and the changing landscape of American shopping. It is a practical conversation piece for collectors, former shoppers, and anyone drawn to disappearing regional brands.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIra A. Watson Co., commonly known as Watson's, was a department store chain based in Knoxville, Tennessee. Founded in 1907, it expanded from one Knoxville operation into a regional network serving county-seat towns across the Southeast. The company first developed downtown stores and later opened substantially larger locations in shopping centers and malls. Its operations extended into Alabama, Kentucky, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Missouri, Indiana, and Illinois. Merchandise for the stores was purchased and distributed through a centralized warehouse at the Knoxville corporate offices. Watson's experienced financial difficulty in the late 1980s and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in February 1992 after it could not renew bank financing. At filing, it operated 31 stores in nine states. Profitability improved, and the company emerged from Chapter 11 in about half the expected six-year period, but it did not fully recover. Peebles purchased Watson's for $4.45 million in a transaction completed June 29, 1998, making it a wholly owned subsidiary. In 1999, all Watson's stores were converted to Peebles. Peebles was purchased by Specialty Retailers in 2003 and is now part of the Gordman's chain.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduct features\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Durable Lexan\/polycarbonate shell with glossy full-color finish\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Flexible TPU interior liner for shock absorption and impact dispersion\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Lay-flat bezel that protects the screen from small scratches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- UV-protected surface resists outdoor weathering and color fading\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Supports wireless charging; two-piece design for secure fit\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Clean with damp cotton or microfiber cloth.
