This ¾” thick Bath House is hand screen printed on the front and back. It is part of a four-piece series of buildings called Chippewa Lake Amusement Park, created by Cat’s Meow founder, Faline Jones, in her eleventh year of business. This series was introduced in 1993 and retired on December 31, 1998.

Built in the 1920's, the Bath House contained boys dormitory rooms upstairs. In the 1930's, lights were added to the beach area to extend swimming hours into the evening. Pro Football Hall of Famers Pug Rentner and Cliff (Gip) Battles worked a few seasons as daytime lifeguards and nighttime Ballroom bouncers.

Look for our trademark black cat, Casper, on every Cat’s Meow. Handcrafted in our Wooster, Ohio workshop.

There are a limited number of this piece available, which is reflected in the price. With your purchase of this building, Faline will donate 10% to Amani Ya Juu, a fair-trade sewing and training program for marginalized women throughout Africa.
