he designed the FFA jacket
The first FFA jacket was created by a store in Fredericktown, Ohio and was modified by the local Fredericktown high school FFA chapter and worn to the National Convention in 1933. It was liked so much that it was made the official dress of the FFA. The jacket store no longer exists, but the building is still there and can be seen right on main street. The original high school was demolished a few years ago where the FFA chapter originally resided.
