Hames are one of the two curved wooden or metal projections which are attached to or form part of the collar of a draft horse and to which the traces are fastened. The Consolidated Hame Company was formed around 1896 when the Baker, Carr & Company merged with Bartlett & Rowell. The Consolidated Hame Company purchased the Rome Hame Company and in 1902 were merged with various concerns which became known as the U.S. Hame Company. From the description of Collection, 1828-1922.
