Recently, we had a visit from the Americanologists, and they had a lot to say!
“Last week, we had one of the most interesting factory tours in the history of the Americanologists, when we visited the Bollman Hat Company in Adamstown, PA. The firm is the oldest hat-maker in the United States, dating back to 1868! That’s just 3 years after the end of the Civil War. We came away with a desire to wear more hats in order to support this wonderful heritage business….”
See the rest of what they wrote about their experience here:
