Best Made Inspiration: Signal-Flag Jackets “The colorful jackets are manufactured by Mighty Mac of Glouster, Mass., which got its start over 50 years ago by making slickers for the local fishermen. In the midst of the current pleasure-boating boom which now involves 40 million Americans, the company has begun making sailing gear for amateurs that can take rugged wear and weather and still look attractive. The jackets, which are made in water repellent cotton, cost $17 for men’s sizes, $15 for women, and $13 for children, which, for the water-wings crewman, comes as small as a size two.” (from Life Magazine, 04.28.61) Special thanks to our intern Jess Yan for finding this gem!
