Wendell August Forge

The original Wendell August Forge facility was a historic landmark in Mercer County, Pennsylvania. It is the last remaining working forge in the state. The company operates retail stores in Grove City, Berlin, Ohio and Wilmington, North Carolina; the forge and the stores are well-known tourist destinations. Wendell August was the first to use the repoussé process of manufacture, and has operated near Grove City since 1932. It produces a variety of merchandise, including Americana, such as bowls, figurines and ornaments,as well as commemorative items.〔("Landmark metal forge burns in Mercer County." ''Pittsburgh Post-Gazette''. March 06, 2010. )〕
When it was built in 1932, the forge was a simple one-story rectangular building measuring approximately by ; its frame was steel, constructed on a foundation of poured concrete. That property was located in a primarily residential neighborhood.〔Rogers, Rebecca M. ''National Register of Historic Places Inventory/Nomination: Wendell August Forge''. National Park Service, 1996-07-10, 7.〕 The historic facility was destroyed by a fire on March 6, 2010〔 and, for the next 3 years, factory and office operations were located at the old Cooper-Bessemer plant in Grove City with a temporary retail outlet at the nearby Slovak Folk Crafts.
On Tuesday, October 9th, 2013, Wendell August opened their new Flagship store, factory and headquarters at 2074 Leesburg-Grove City Rd, 1/2 mile west of the Grove City Premium Outlets in Springfield Township, Pennsylvania. The new 52,000 square foot facility includes a history center and offers tours of the factory.
The company pioneered the production of hammered aluminum giftware, which it first produced in 1930.
Over the years, the forge's works have included ashtrays used on the Hindenburg as well as a number of customized items for Walt Disney.〔("Fire ruins Pa. forge that made Hindenburg ashtrays". breitbart. AP, Online. March 6, 2010 )〕
