1860s Bollman Heritage Collection Bonnet |
"The Bollman Hat Company was founded in 1868, when George Bollman and Isaac Sowers and sixty employees began production at a former distillery on Main Street in Adamstown. The Company's first hats were made within three years of the end of the Civil War in the United States which was fought between April 12, 1861 and April 9, 1865. Railroads advertised land for sale in ladies magazines, such as Godey's, and people headed west. By 1869, anyone could travel from one coast to the other by railroad. Immigrants flooded America's shores after the Civil War looking for freedom, a better life, and their fortune. In these early days, Bollman himself brought hats to the rail stations on a cart pulled by his horse Lemon.During the 1860's women's fashion featured hoop skirts and bonnets. At the height of its popularity, the hoop skirt reached a maximum width of six feet! The sewing machine allowed dress makers to produce more pieces at cheaper costs and new dyes provided for brighter colors. Bonn"

1870s Bollman Heritage Collection Spoon |
"Business grew steadily for George Bollman since founding the company in 1868. In 1874, George bought out his partner, Isaac Sowers. In 1875, George purchased twenty two acres of land at a total cost of $2,200. Many inventions were introduced throughout the 1870's such as the typewriter, telephone, vacuum cleaner, phonograph and the electric light bulb. These, and other products of the Industrial Revolution, resulted in a growing economy that supported a little extravagance. In 1878, fire destroyed the building that Mr. Bollman purchased in 1875. A building was rented immediately so operations could continue while a new building was erected later in the same year.Bustle dresses came in at the end of the 1860's and remained in style throughout the 1870's. The jacket-like bodices were worn with large skirts that were folded and ruffled. Small hats and bonnets continued to be in style because of the large twist hairstyles. The spoon hat became popular later in the 1870's featuring a shallo"

1880s Bollman Heritage Collection Equestrian |
"The Bollman Hat Company continued to grow in size and production in the 1880's as did taller crowns for women's hats. The 1880's also witnessed creation of the Brooklyn Bridge and the very first skyscraper in Chicago. Kodak camera and film were also introduced by George Eastman in this decade. President James A. Garfield was assassinated in 1881 by Charles J. Guiteau, a rejected and disillusioned Federal office seeker.The slimmer silhouette fashion continued into the early 1880's and by the mid-1880's the bustle dress made its resurgence appearing bigger than ever. The bustle grew smaller by the end of the decade and the skirt draperies disappeared. As the bustle decreased in size, the size of the upper arm sleeve increased. Hats grew larger with taller crowns and were worn for all different occasions. For example, a dapper top hat like the Equestrian, paired with tulle or a silk scarf, was popular for riding. We selected this equestrian hat in burgundy with matching grosgrain band an"

1890s Bollman Heritage Collection Boater |
"George Bollman's son, George W. Bollman, joined his father in the business in 1897 at the age of twenty. More color and more ladies hats were going into production at the Bollman Factory during the 1890's. Women's clothing styles shed some of the extravagances of previous decades. Early 1890's dresses consisted of a tight bodice with the skirt gathered at the waist and falling more naturally over the hips than in previous years.During the mid-1890's, skirts took on an A-line silhouette that was almost bell-like. The late 1890's returned to the tighter sleeves often with small puffs or ruffles capping the shoulder but fitted to the wrist. Skirts took on a trumpet shape, fitting more closely over the hip and flaring just above the knee. Corsets in the 1890's helped define the hourglass figure. The corset was painful to wear. Some women would starve themselves to get to a sixteen inch waist. The flat-top, wide-brim style demonstrated in this Boater was the perfect accent for these styles "

1900s Bollman Heritage Collection Gibson Girl |
"Our founder George Bollman died in 1900. His twenty three year old son, George W. Bollman, purchased the business from his mother soon thereafter. The elder George was born in 1838, founded the hat factory at age thirty and died at age sixty two. There were more than one hundred small hat factories in America and competition was fierce. Hat manufacturing in Adamstown was limited to summer and early fall months during this decade. George W. Bollman decided in 1905 to enter the hosiery manufacturing business to provide employment for the workers during the winter and spring months. In the early 1900's, women's fashion showed a confident and curvy look. The corset of this period removed pressure from the abdomen and created an S-curve silhouette.The Gibson Girl drawings were pen and ink illustrations by Charles Dana Gibson. These illustrations were often considered the first national standard of beauty for women. One of the trends that resulted from the drawings was an affinity for large-"

1910s Bollman Heritage Collection Toque |
"Nearly every man and woman wore a hat or cap every day during this time in American history. Despite the fact that hat wearing was so common, Bollman continued to supplement work for his employees with hosiery production at the Bollman owned Blue-Cross knitting mills in the off season. A 1910 picture of employees of this mill showed thirty five workers and their families including George W. and four of his five sons.During the early 1910's, the fashionable silhouette became much more soft and fluid than in the 1900's. During the years that World War I was fought, more women were forced to work outside the home and thus their fashion styles changed dramatically from past decades. Women's fashion demanded tailored suits and shirtwaists. Large hats with wide brims and broad hats with face-shadowing brims were the height of fashion before the outbreak of World War I in 1914. During the war, the styles gradually shrunk to smaller brimless hats like the Toque. This Toque in royal blue featur"

1920s Bollman Heritage Collection Flapper |
"Bollman Hat Company roared on during the Roaring Twenties. The 1920's were also known as the Jazz Age. Women finally won the right to vote in 1920. Post-World War I, a divide in culture grew quickly due to Prohibition. Alcoholic beverages were illegal in the United States for the entire decade. The speakeasy culture was full of independent, cigarette-smoking, alcohol drinking women who were not afraid to express themselves and defy the law. Flappers wore colorful cloches with beaded embellishment. The Flapper hat is a short-brimmed cloche worn by women of this decade with a growing sense of independence. A definite change from the sweet, flowery styles that dominated headwear fashion in the previous decades, the cloche is a confident style which hugs the face. Our cloche in ruby red is classic, flattering and fun! This hat comes in a special edition Bollman Heritage Hat Box."

1930s Bollman Heritage Collection Aviator |
"Hat wearing continued to be part of the daily uniform of American's in the 1930's. The Bollman Company expanded its vertical manufacturing capability in 1931 by starting its wool processing operation known as Bollman Carbonizing Company. 1930's America was marked by both serious turmoil and major change. Due to the plummeting of the stock market in 1929, the country quickly fell under an intense economic collapse known as the Great Depression. Unemployment in America grew to twenty five percent in 1933. Amidst the bedlam of drastic social changes were the technological advancements that allowed the field of aviation to enter new and exciting territory. While Lindbergh gained popularity for making the first solo non-stop flight across the Atlantic Ocean in 1927, the country also fell in love with the second person to do so, Amelia Earhart.Women's fashion became more conservative in cut and color. The simple clean lines of the Aviator demonstrate the understated, less baroque designs "

1940s Bollman Heritage Collection Rosie |
"When George W. Bollman died in 1940, he had five sons (George C., Fred, Paul, Richard and Daniel) who would all enter and run the hat company. On December 7th, 1941, the course of American history would change forever. That day, Japanese pilots swarmed Pearl Harbor, killing 2,402 U.S. Navy seamen and provoking the United States to enter World War II. Millions of men either chose or were drafted into the military to fight Germany and its allies in the war. The Bollman Company kept in contact with those employees serving in the military. The Bollman family provided regular updates to the workforce at home on those lost in action, in captivity, injured and those returning home. Some of these letters have been preserved and hang in the hall of the Company's main office today.Due to the swift deployment of so many men to Europe and other war zones, America saw women enter the work force in numbers like it had never seen before.

1950s Bollman Heritage Collection Grace |
"The Bollman Hat Company acquired several other hat companies during the 1950's including Merrimac Hats which had been among America's largest hat makers. Postwar 1940's and the 1950's saw a shift back to more traditional values for women as men returned from war and took factory jobs for themselves. The size of the average American family grew dramatically. The conflict in Korea occurred during this period. The Civil Rights Movement and rock -n- roll were picking up speed in the 1950's. Still, this decade had the appearance of innocence as well as old-fashioned conformity.Beauty and etiquette were emphasized for women of society. One figure that became an absolute representation of this ideal was American actress, Grace Kelly. This hat has the same grace as its namesake. It has a wide brim shape and charming colors that make it extremely feminine while still having a restrained elegance.

1960s Bollman Heritage Collection Jackie |
"Bollman Hat Company celebrated its 100th year in the 1960's. With longer hair styles and the emergence of lower car roof lines, hatlessness in America created a challenging time for hat makers. The 1960's again saw America in great turmoil and social conflict. The Civil Rights Movement quickly became a nationwide focus and the Women's Liberation Movement caught fire with the publication of Betty Friedan's The Feminine Mystique. This was also the era of rock -n- roll, the hippie counterculture, political turmoil and the Vietnam War. The assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963 stunned America. While the country grieved the loss of the popular president, his widow provided inspiration to countless citizens. Throughout the horrible incident, Jackie Kennedy was a pillar of strength and poise.Sharp fashion sense was one of the manifestations of women's lib, featuring a variety of looks from seductive hem lines to carefree hippie to a tailored business look.

1970s Bollman Heritage Collection Annie |
"Bollman Hat Company survived when many hat companies couldn't during the 1970's. This decade was not kind to the hat business until the urban cowboy boom in 1979. The hat company's ownership transitioned from the Bollman Family to management in 1974. Activism continued early in the 1970's but subsided with the end of the Vietnam War in 1975. Baby boomers turned their focus inward rather than on society as a whole. Watergate, the Iran hostage crisis, and soaring gas prices were just some of the events that led people to work on their own well-being rather than the nation?s problems. The Me Generation focused on things like individual spirituality, personal wealth and style.Certain art forms have the ability to sum up an entire decade in succinct, spot on representations of culture. Woody Allen's Annie Hall is an excellent study of the nuances of the 1970's female. In the movie, Annie Hall's wardrobe consisted of a tomboyish look that was topped off with a large-brimmed bowler.

"Bollman produced record breaking numbers of hats in 1980 and 1981 driven by the urban cowboy trend. Peaking with three shifts and over 800 employees, we produced more than 5.1 million hat bodies in 1980 and more than 4.1 million finished hats in 1981. Bollman adopted an Employee Stock Ownership Plan in 1985 which gave all of its US employees ownership in the Company. Bollman acquired Bailey Hats in 1986. This was the same year that it perfected its LiteFelt innovation which made a felt hat crushable and water repellent. Ronald Reagan was elected president in 1980. The Iran-Contra Affair took place from 1985 to 1987 and the Berlin Wall came down in 1989 (the end of the Cold War). Reaganomics took a conservative financial line, cutting taxes significantly and also ending many anti-poverty and affirmative action programs which caused abrupt changes in the economic mindset of the country.Elaborate designs and bright colors were in vogue in the 1980's.
