Bowie County, Texas, VARIOUS SHOTS inside the American Hat Co., a cowboy hat making factory. We see employees in a workshop, sewing. Others in another workshop are shaping the hats by steaming them and then shaping them by hand. One worker is wearing a hat while going about his work. A machine is shaping a hat into the famous “Ten Gallon Hat” shape. The sizes of the hats are identified using a mould.
