Anderson-Little
Anderson–Little was founded in the Boston area in 1918 or in the 1920s by Morris B. Anderson and Albert Little. Anderson had been born in Russia and came to America as a teen; before co-founding Anderson-Little he had worked for Singer Sewing Machine, and managed firms including the Morris B. Anderson Clothing Company. In the 1930s – perhaps 1933, or perhaps 1936 – the company relocated to Fall River, Massachusetts, then a textile-manufacturing center.
