Pendleton Woolen Mills is renown worldwide for thier clothing and blankets. Starting in 1909 and expanding trade from the Nez Perce nation near Pendleton to the Navajo, Hopi and Zuni nations, Pendleton blankets were used as basic wearing apparel and as a standard of value for trading and credit among Native Americans. The blankets also became prized for ceremonial use. In 1912, the addition of a weaving mill in Washougal, Washington, broadened its capability for fabric variety, including suiting fabric. Wool shirts for men were largely utility items in the early 20th century. Drab in design and color, they were worn for warmth and protection from the elements by those who worked outdoors. Clarence Morton (C.M.) Bishop had a vision for wool shirts in vivid colors and intricate patterns. The production of woolen shirting material was a natural extension of the mill's capabilities. In 1924, the legendary Pendleton virgin wool men's shirt was born. By 1929, Pendleton was making a full line of men's virgin wool sportswear. This Pendleton men's coat is in very good condition, no marring noted.
