: Willis & Geiger
: 1902 Explorers Trail
: Reedsburg WI 53959
: 1-800-223-1408
: This company has been around since 1902 and has supplied historic
: figures such as T. Roosevelt, Adm. Byrd, Lindbergh, Doolittle, Earhart, and famed aviation pioneer Roscoe Turner. They developed the A-2 flight jacket in 1931 (the kind you always see Spielberg wearing.) Hemingway, Edmund Hillary, the Flying Tigers, the 8th Air Force, and the whole Army Air Corps in WW 2 wore their clothing.
: This company even supplied the stars of 1953's "Mogambo." So,
: I wonder why Lucasfilms didn't give them the business. This place is probably the most reasonably priced source you'll find for the Indy pants and shirt. I have their last 16 catalogs, and their merchandise is impressive. Unfortunately there is no website or e-mail listed, just fax
: and phone. No disappointment here.
Willis & Geiger is a great company, isn't it? I found a web site which
seems to organize several companys on the WWW. Follow the link below
and look for a image titled "Order Catalog Online".
