Federal Centennial Coffee Table Book

It’s not every day that you turn 100, but every day before that and every day after is sure to be legendary. That’s why Federal Ammunition, which crosses the century mark in 2022, is celebrating its centennial with giveaways, videos and other goodies for its fans. Today’s 100th-anniversary surprise: an heirloom-quality coffee-table book to delight you and your guests for a century to come. Titled Federal Ammunition: The First Hundred Years, this 244-page hardcover book highlights Federal’s history as part of American ammunition innovation.

An original painting of the original 1923 Federal plant adorns the book’s cover, and the beauty of this educational tome continues from the foreword to the final page. Organized by decade, each chapter covers 10 years in the life of Federal … packed with gorgeous images of vintage packaging, historical photos and other unique peeks into the inner workings of Federal as it was.

“It’s impossible to tell every tale in our history, but what we have captured in this book highlights Federal’s journey over the last 10 decades,” said Jason Vanderbrink, Federal Ammunition President. “From our humble beginning, the single most essential element of our overall success has been Federal’s longstanding commitment to building a superior product. We are proud of our accomplishments and are excited to share our history in this wonderful collection of stories.”

With 244 pages of Federal operations overlaid against American history, you’ll see how the company and the country grew and adapted together. Only 5,000 copies of this limited-edition book were printed—making Federal Ammunition: The First Hundred Years a collectible your family will appreciate for years to come.

“Our story of perseverance, imagination, and innovation has been shaped by many business leaders before us,” continued Vanderbrink. “Throughout Federal’s existence, we’ve shared this incredible ride with a supportive Anoka community, and our stories of growth and success are forever linked. Federal has been, and will always be, a service leader.”

The book’s MSRP is $59.99, and you can get one of your own here while supplies last. Federal promises that each month of their centennial will feature more cool content and surprises, so keep an eye on FederalPremium.com and this space!
