Talk:Austin Reed (retailer)

Austin Reed the founder
Anyone interested in creating an entry for Austin Reed himself - the man who started the company? I think he deserves his own entry because the brand he created in 1900 is still a household name! A collection of home movies of him with his family in the 30s and 40s can be seen here: Footage of him must be very rare. Johnalexwood (talk) 00:34, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

I have started a Wikitree profile for him at https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Reed-24918. I know very little so can not really add anything but I agree that he deserves an entry.

By the way the Austin Reed website no (on the Auston Reed (retailer)) page. The link takes you to a page that says Jaeger is in receivership. There are captures of the web site on the Wayback machine upto 2020. https://web.archive.org/web/20160201000000*/http://www.austinreed.com/ JGW 10 February 2021 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jgw321 (talk • contribs) 16:45, 10 February 2021 (UTC) Jgw321 (talk) 16:49, 10 February 2021 (UTC)
