10 subscribers
The Factory That Built Us tells the stories behind American factory history: the lost American brands, abandoned factories and hometown plants that once made everything our families trusted. From Schwinn and Singer to Zenith and Maytag, we explore the rise and fall of the companies whose products were built to last, and the towns that were built around them. Every story is researched from historical records, archival photos and company histories. If you remember when "Made in USA" was on everything in your home, you're in the right place. Subscribe, and tell us in the comments which American brand you still have at home.
