[edit] Additional source of information
There is some additional material on the current Mackintosh company at this Google cached version of an article on thefashionspot.com in 2004.
As this is a cache article, it would probably be worth gathering information from it before it disappears. -- Solipsist 18:13, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- I think it moved here. It seems to be a copy and paste of a newspaper article, which is similar to this 2002 Scotsman piece. --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 13:33, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Error in origins
Judging by Charles Macintosh's entry at the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, we have got it wrong regarding the relationship of Hancock and Mackintosh. See http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/17541 (subscription or library card needed)
Also perhaps useful: http://www.lakelandelements.com/rainwearhistory/notes/mackintosh_heyday.htm (extract from S. Levitt 'Manchester Mackintoshes: A History of the Rubberized Garment Trade in Manchester', published in Textile History in 1986. ) Be nice to get a look at the whole article.
