About Est1883.com
Since 1883, the Gretsch Company has designed and manufactured the world's best
drums, guitars, and musical instrument accessories. The year 2008 will mark our 125th
anniversary. To commemorate our legacy as well as celebrate the "first year of our next 100
years", Gretsch has planned a worldwide celebration, including publicity campaigns, limited
edition instruments and identity items, and special events. In the course of planning for 2008, we
discovered that many other leading American companies and institutions were also established in
1883.
Examples include:
- Wente Vineyards
- Lucchese Boots
- Kroger Stores
- University of Texas
- The Brooklyn Bridge
- Life Magazine
- The First Rodeo
In the spirit of entrepreneurial cooperation, the Gretsch Company has registered the URL
www.est1883.com and is developing a website that can help promote all organizations that have
"Established 1883" in common.
The Gretsch Company invites any and all organizations that were established in 1883 to
join us in commemorating our past, present, and future through est1883.com!
