And it's old factory is a couple of blocks from my house.

What an interesting read - not just the bit about Durham taking over W&B - the political stuff involved in the cutlery industry at that time is very interesting.
It's also interesting how many American companies were ramping up production in 1922 - between Gillette and the stock market crash, I wonder how many were still operating by 1932?

Excuse my ignorance but how were you able to read this article?
I could not open anything from the link
