Product Details & Size Guide

GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.

Bring a Southern California retail name into your everyday rotation with this Buffums embroidered dad cap hat. Buffums began in Long Beach in 1904 and grew into a chain of 16 specialty department stores, earning a place in local memory as the Grand Dame of department stores. Its “I've been to Buffums” advertising remains a recognizable part of the story. This cap is a thoughtful pick for former shoppers, Long Beach history fans, and collectors of classic department-store style.

Buffums began in Long Beach, California, in 1904, when Charles and Edwin Buffum and other partners bought the Schilling Bros. dry goods business and began operating it as The Mercantile Co. The business grew from a downtown store into a regional chain of 16 specialty department stores across Southern California. Its downtown flagship expanded over several decades: a new building opened in stages in 1924, a parking garage followed in 1941, and additions in 1960 and 1964 enlarged the complex. From the 1950s, the chain gradually added stores and promoted its specialty-store identity. Known locally as the “Grand Dame” of department stores, Buffums used the advertising line “I've been to Buffums” in the 1970s and 1980s. Australian retailer David Jones bought the chain in the 1970s; by the time of its attempted sale in the 1980s, it had become part of Adelaide Steamship Company. In 1982, the Long Beach store and headquarters moved to Long Beach Plaza after the downtown complex was sold; that complex was demolished in 1985. Buffums entered liquidation after the 1990 Christmas season. A brief retail relaunch opened in Long Beach's Belmont Shore neighborhood in October 2015 and closed in March 2016.
