1925réf. 7016Milwaukee: the company 1925. Trade catalogue bound with three brass fasteners 28 x 22.5 cm. forty-two original color-printed cellophane or polyethylene food wrappers mostly for meat bacon or sausage or candy products. Brand names and designs vary greatly. Some of the samples bare the Milprint Protecto-Pack or Millprint Econo-Wrap slug. "Milprint Inc. was founded by the brothers Max T. "Popsy" Heller and William "Billy" Heller as the Milwaukee Printing Company in 1899. Beginning in 1908 they succeeded in developing printing techniques for flexible media used in commercial packaging at first glassine paper and then cellophane foil and polyethylene. The Heller brothers were able to get in at the beginnings of the mass marketing of consumer goods when individually sealed wrappings implied safety and purity. Their paper wrappings practically made the individual nickel candy bar possible and the firm dominated the candy wrapper market at an early date. Its in-house artists and designers advised clients on the most effective way to package their products. The Heller brothers also developed "Trans-Vision" a means of depicting complex objects in peel-away layers on transparent film whose most common use was probably depicting the anatomy of the human body in textbooks. William Heller sold Milprint to Philip Morris Incorporated in 1957" Hagley Museum Finding aid for the Leonard Walton collection of Milprint materials. Some leaves at the rear show signs that some samples were removed and some adhesive corner marks to leaves otherwise in remarkable condition for a collection of cellophane meat and candy wrappers with all samples bright and clean.

1930réf. 79776Basle Basel: Durand & Huguenin SA 1930. Fine. Basle Basel Durand & Huguenin SA 1930s. Octavo an 8-panel piece of card folded concertina-style with the title in French English and German on the verso of the first panel an 8-page last leaf blank tri-lingual 'Dying Method' booklet mounted on the recto of the first panel and 7 printed panels with attached samples of dyed wool comprising 6 sections each with 6 large samples of slubbed or twisted wool and one section with 10 samples of woollen felt with the specific formula printed next to each sample. A fine copy of a most attractive display item with the rubber-stamp of the sole Australasian agent Norman G. Clark. The business that Norman Clark founded in 1919 is still in existence; following his death in 1951 his sons incorporated it as Norman G. Clark Pty. Ltd. For this reason together with the disruptions caused by the Second World War and the immediate post-war period it is highly likely that this trade catalogue dates back to the 1930s. We purchased this item many years ago from the estate of Dr Hedley Ralph Marston; if you don't know about him consult the 'Australian Dictionary of Biography' without delay. Durand & Huguenin SA unknown
