1858 - Rowland Hussey Macy was a Nantucket Quaker and whaler who failed several times as a store owner until he founded a “fancy dry goods” store in New York City on 6th Avenue near 14th Street in 1858. He began selling at a fixed price for cash, discounted and advertised his merchandise. The red star tatooed on his hand as a 15-year old boy on the whaling ship Emily Morgan became the symbol of the new store.

OK, wiseguy, where did the red star in the WalMart logo come from?

Commie China???

Interesting. A guy from India had - maybe still does - a swastika on his wall, said it goes back to ancient times in his country.
