Seventeen year-old Jacob Golomb, the son of a tailor and an avid swimmer, was dissatisfied with swimsuits of the time that barely lasted a season, and began making suits that he guaranteed would last for a full year. He proudly gave them the name \"EVERLAST\", and although the swimsuits did not last throughout history, the name did.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eOver the subsequent years, Golomb transformed his company into a small retail store that carried a full line of sports equipment. In 1917, a young fighter named Jack Dempsey introduced boxing to Golomb and Everlast. Dempsey asked Golomb to construct protective headgear that would last more than 15 rounds of intensive boxing training. Golomb special designed the training gear for Dempsey. In 1919, Dempsey won the world's heavyweight championship wearing boxing gloves made for him by Golomb; Everlast became the headquarters for boxing equipment throughout the world.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"S16 Home","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":15263116492889,"sku":"","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0018\/9425\/2633\/products\/vintage-adult-boxing-gloves-byeverlast-1960s-1.jpg?v=1539224031"},{"product_id":"catchers-mask-001","title":"Metal and Leather Platform Catcher's Mask c.1960","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is an original vintage catcher's mask.

Plastic was found to be more effective because it held its shape when full collision contact occurred on a play. These helmets were also much more comfortable and had more padding to cushion the head in an impact. Included with the plastic helmet came plastic face mask, which allowed the helmet to protect the entire head. By the mid-1940s, helmets were required in the NFL. They were still made of leather, but with improved manufacturing techniques had assumed their more familiar spherical shape. The NFL initially allowed either plastic or leather helmets, but in 1948 the league outlawed the plastic helmet, considering the hard-plastic material to be an injury risk. The NFL repealed this rule in 1949, and by 1950, the plastic helmet had become universal in that league\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"S16 Home","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":16598432677977,"sku":"","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0018\/9425\/2633\/products\/black-and-gold-vintage-football-helmet-with_leather-strap-2.jpg?v=1540938981"},{"product_id":"black-leather-luggage-with-original-travel-stickers-c","title":"Antique Old England Leather and Brass Luggage with Original Travel Stickers c. 1900-1930","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eThis is an original antique luggage by Old England, Paris.

The first step towards that goal was the \"Kodak\" camera he introduced in 1888 which had a built-in 100-exposure paper roll film costing $25, a huge amount. The box camera had to be sent back to the factory once all the exposures had been used. The customers got their cameras back with new film roll loaded into it, and the image prints. In 1890 a Kodak folding camera with built-in 48 exposure film roll followed. After years of advertising the brand Kodak the company was renamed \"Eastman Kodak Co.\" In 1900 Eastman had reached his goal, offering the Brownie rollfilm camera which cost only $1 including a 6 exposure film. Further film rolls cost just 15 cents.

In 1881 he and Rochester's local buggy whip manufacturer Henry A. Strong founded the \"Eastman Dry Plate Company\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1885 the \u003ci\u003eAmerican Film\u003c\/i\u003e was introduced, a paper roll film which needed a special development process, made usable with the new Eastman-Walker rollfilm holder. This was used later in the first two Kodak cameras. However Eastman knew that he needed a transparent film for the future, and hired the chemist  Henry H. Reichenbach as research scientist. The transparent roll film would be delivered in 1889.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEastman's goal in life was to simplify and to popularize photography. The first step towards that goal was the \"Kodak\" camera he introduced in 1888 which had a built-in 100-exposure paper roll film costing $25, a huge amount. The box camera had to be sent back to the factory once all the exposures had been used. The customers got their cameras back with new film roll loaded into it, and the image prints. In 1890 a Kodak folding camera with built-in 48 exposure film roll followed. After years of advertising the brand Kodak the company was renamed \"Eastman Kodak Co.\" In 1900 Eastman had reached his goal, offering the Brownie rollfilm camera which cost only $1 including a 6 exposure film. Further film rolls cost just 15 cents. The Brownie camera series was continued until 1970.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"S16 Home","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":18037669527641,"sku":"","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0018\/9425\/2633\/products\/vintage-folding-camera-by-kodak-1_7c77d76b-3d77-4bd9-9d9b-e066f75235f7.jpg?v=1542316670"},{"product_id":"art-deco-copper-plated-pointer-dog-bookends-c-1930","title":"Bronze-Plated Pointer Dog Bookends, c.1940","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eABOUT\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eThis is a pair of original bronze plated solid steel bookends of pointer dogs.
