New York’s Original Kazoo Co. stays true to name
The name of the place says it all: The Original Kazoo Co. And, boy, do its owners mean original.
The same belt and pulley machines that stamped and shaped the world’s first metal kazoos circa 1900 still stamp and shape kazoos today. The machines are still in the same building, making the same ker-thwunk sound as they perforate, fold and shape.
Instead of shipping production off to China Kazoo provides employment for the mentally disabled in the small farming community in which it operates. Kazoo gets it. Kellogg screwed with its Oreo knock off Hydrox cookie and created enough of an uproar to get the company to bring the cookie back.
Crocs are you listening? Greed will get you somewhere, but it aint always gonna be where you wanna go.
