Made in U.S.A. from 100% American Steel.
The "Grumman Wings" design was inspired by a 1930's shop worker embroidered garment that was worn during the period Grumman operated out of the Baldwin Garage shown in my Cover Photo. This garment was manufactured by the A. Rifkin Co., established in 1892 and still in business today!
In 1922, Jack Rifkin received a patent for a special manufacturing design for the work garment known as a "cover- all." This special feature quickly became very popular, and the "Rifkin-All" as the garment was called, became their established trademark.
