Pete the Penguin Hits 70!!!
In 1955, a boozy encounter led to the birth of an icon. Munsingwear salesman Abbot Pederson, fuelled by whiskey during a delayed flight, purchased a stuffed penguin he named Pete. When he accidentally knocked Pete's head off, a stewardess wrapped her necktie around its neck and quipped that it would look good on a shirt. With that, the legendary Pete the Penguin logo was born.
This suave and slightly whimsical bird was first embroidered onto a golf shirt and was soon adopted by a host of legends from the worlds of sport and culture, including Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Arnold Palmer. The Original Penguin Sticker Pete logo came to represent an American classic for people who knew how to have a good time. Even today, Pete the Penguin remains a symbol for those who embrace an original lifestyle and an effortless, retro-inspired cool.
