{"product_id":"wieboldts-embroidered-dad-cap-hat","title":"Wieboldt's Embroidered Dad Cap Hat","description":"GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCelebrate a Chicago retail name with this Wieboldt's Embroidered Dad Cap Hat. Founded in 1883, Wieboldt's grew from a downtown department store into a regional chain with more than 15 Chicago-area locations by the 1970s. Its history brings to mind State Street shopping, neighborhood branches, S\u0026amp;H Green Stamps, and holiday visits with Santa. A considered choice for former shoppers and local-history enthusiasts, this hat nods to the familiar routines and lasting memories tied to Wieboldt's.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWieboldt Stores, Inc., known as Wieboldt's, was a Chicago general retailer founded in 1883 by storekeeper William A. Wieboldt. Its flagship stood at State and Madison streets in downtown Chicago. In 1961, the company acquired the failed Mandel Brothers store on State Street and a smaller branch at Lincoln Village shopping center. By the 1970s, Wieboldt's operated more than 15 stores across the Chicago metropolitan area. The chain marked its centennial in April 1983 with a message looking toward a “New Tomorrow.” During the 1980s, it struggled to remain profitable and entered bankruptcy in 1986. Store closures followed in 1987: most locations shut on March 10, while the State Street flagship closed on July 18 and some other branches remained open later that year. The State Street building had been reduced from nine stories to five floors in 1985. Wieboldt's also gave customers S\u0026amp;H Green Stamps, with redemption centers in its stores, and sponsored broadcasts featuring The Cinnamon Bear in the 1940s and 1950s and again in the mid-1980s. Its Chicago radio advertisements during Cubs games in the early 1960s featured Jack Quinlan and Lou Boudreau.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduct features\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Unstructured 6-panel body for a relaxed, low-profile fit\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Permacurv® precurved visor with 4-row stitching and color-matched underbill\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Self-fabric hideaway strap with antique brass buckle and grommet for adjustable fit\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- 100% cotton construction (Green Camo variant 65% polyester \/ 35% cotton)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Sewn-in label and brand sticker on visor; adult sizing (not for ages 0–3)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Use warm water and dish soap and clean spots off your hat.
