Connect a round of golf with Wisconsin department store history through these T. A. Chapman Co. golf balls. Founded in 1857 by Timothy Appleton Chapman, Chapman's became part of Milwaukee's retail story with a flagship on Wisconsin Avenue, opened in 1872 and rebuilt after an 1884 fire. The chain later reached Madison and Appleton as well. For golfers who collect regional history, this set recalls a family-owned business and the changing world of Wisconsin commerce.
T. A. Chapman Co., commonly known as Chapman's, was a department store chain based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Timothy Appleton Chapman founded the company in 1857. In 1872, he opened its flagship store on Wisconsin Avenue in downtown Milwaukee. Fire destroyed the original Wisconsin Avenue location in 1884, and the store was rebuilt. The company later expanded beyond Milwaukee: in 1978 it acquired Manchester's Department Stores in Madison, Wisconsin. The Chapman family retained ownership until 1983, and the chain eventually reached seven locations. By the time the company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 1987, it had six stores: three in Milwaukee, two in Madison, and one in Appleton. The company’s history links a family-owned retail business founded in the nineteenth century with downtown Milwaukee and later expansion into other Wisconsin cities. Its documented story includes a rebuilt flagship, an acquisition, a change in family ownership, and a bankruptcy filing.
Get your audience in the zone with these personalized golf balls. Available in budget-friendly six packs, these golf balls are made with 100% surlyn. Your artwork, photos, or names go on all six balls, in vivid detail and color.
