New York, Brooklyn & Boston founded by Caleb still son Hammond in 1900, and formally incorporated in 1901, the company has been known over much of its history as c.s. Hammond & co. unlike most globe manufacturing in the United States, which was cantered in Chicago at the beginning of the 20th century, c.s. Hammond began work in New York city.
Hammond is well-known for its extensive line of world, historical, school, and thematic atlases, and globes, but the company has issued a wide variety of other cartographic items, including maps and transparencies during the last 100 years. it has also printed numerous other works, primarily for the educational market. in addition to its own imprints, Hammond’s cartographic output has been included in the encyclopaedias, almanacs, dictionaries, bibles, and textbooks of many other publishers.
However, in addition to manufacturing their own globes, they used both W.& A.K. Johnston and Chicago gores with a Hammond label over the original cartouche. In its heyday in the early 1960s, Hammond employed 120 draftsmen, artists, and researchers at its comfortable, panelled offices an easy walk from the quaint Maplewood village centre. now the maps are reproduced by a half-dozen computer technicians at a generic office complex in Springfield (and reviewers say the quality of the maps remains high). the only person left who remembers Hammond of the old days is an elderly secretary. there is still a Hammond world atlas corp., but the company is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Langenscheidt publishing group, a German publishing behemoth whose other acquisitions include haustrum maps, American map corp., Berlitz, and the World Almanac.
