Scott Paper Company Letterhead from 1892
Scott Paper Company was founded by brothers, E. Irvin Scott, Clarence Scott and later joined by Thomas Seymour Scott. The brothers began by selling butcher paper from pushcarts in 1867 in Philadelphia. Later, they brand named toilet paper and made Scott Paper Company the largest producer of bathroom tissues. They were also famous for inventing the paper towel, in order to help school teachers help children suffering from colds in the classroom. This letterhead from 1892 was scanned from a letter to their sister Cora Waring and was written by Clarence Scott.
