NOTES:

The MacGregor G382 Girls Softball Body Protector was listed in the 1951 Goldsmith-Macgregor catalog. The Joint Rules Committee on Softball have ruled that all girl catchers playing softball must wear a body protector. The G382 - Strong khaki, comes stitched and firmly stuffed. Adjustable quilted protector with molded fibre over breasts, adjustable web back and shoulder straps, snap fastener. The breast cups are laced to the body protector using the grommets and can be adjusted. The shoulder straps feature the Macgregor cloth tag, and model number.

MacGregor - Originally the Crawford, McGregor & Canby Co. and then MacGregor Golf Co. P.Goldsmith & sons purchased the company in 1936 in an effort to expand their product line and market share. Around 1944 Goldsmith added the MacGregor name to their products and became known as "MacGregor Goldsmith" an attempt to trade on the prestigious image the MacGregor company had earned. Finally, in 1952 the Goldsmith name was dropped entirely and the company was simply called MacGregor. MacGregor becomes a division of the Brunswick Corporation by 1961 and in 1967 the Brunswick Corporation buys out MacGregor.
