The H. M. Van Deusen Whip Company is a historic factory building at 42 Arnold Street in Westfield, Massachusetts. The 1917 3.5 story brick structure was the last of Westfield's major whip factories to be built. Henry Martin Van Deusen began making whips in 1872 in Southfield, and moved to Westfield in 1880. He partnered with John Pomeroy in the whipmaking business until 1902, when he acquired Pomeroy's shares in the business. In 1925, with the decline in demand for whips occasioned by the success of the automobile, Van Deusen converted the factory to the production of lawn swings. He died in 1930, and his son lost many of his inherited assets during the Great Depression. The factory was acquired by Stanley Home Products, which used it as its corporate headquarters into the 1960s. In the 1980s it was acquired by a developer and converted to apartments.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=MACRIS inventory record for HM Van Deusen Whip Company )〕 The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.〔 ==See also==
