AT the North end Of Marshall
Street, Milford, you will see six
gray buildings located on both
sides Of the street, each with a
small sign reading 'eBuilding 4 ("
and over the Office door you will
see the sign "Mulco Products,
me-" To the newcomer this IS
just another industry which IS
busy producing or manufacture
ing something or other, but to
the old timer It is a long es-
tablished business which IS one
OF the largest manufacturers OF
wooden-ware In the United States.
He will also remember II BY its
original name mThe John II. Null
holland Co."
The founder OF this company
was Mr.. John H. Mulholland, who
was the originator Of the wooden
ice cream spoon. The company
was formed In 1922 and In late
1858, the control was bought out
and the name changed to Mulcc
Products, Inc.
From 1922 until 1853, the
major product manufactured was
wooden spoons, but since 1858
many new items have been add
ed and will try to tell you :
little bit about the manufacturing
wrapping, packing and shipping
Of these items.
Il was interesting to learr
from Mr.. Atwell that there are
two plants, not just the one II
Milford. Plant number one Is
located In Indian Head, Md, anC
approximately 200 are employed
between these two plants. Tn.
Sales office and President are
located In New York City, Will

President and General Manager.
The officers Of this fast grow
ing and successful industry are:
President and Treasurer Frank
Goldschmidt; Vice President and
General Manager Bert Atwell;

Iretsry Doris wilkins Greenly.
The Traffic Manager and Pur-
chasing Agent IS Mr.. Eugene
Murphy with Mr.. Kenneth Tat
man managing the Accounting
Department, and Mr.. L. ].
Daino, Credit Manager.
Many Of us I'm sure thought
only Of the wooden spoon when
the name Mulholland & CO. was
mentioned, but as Mr.. Atwell
previously stated many new
items we're added In 1853. All OF
the products manufactured are
wooden products, such as wooden
spoons, forks, popsicle sticks,
tongue depressors, coffee stir
rers, cocktail forks, candy
tongue depressors, garden mark
ers and Brentwood Grade name
Of this company spoons anc
forks. Besides manufacturing the
above items they are the larg-
est wrappers In the United States
of wooden-ware products such a.
those listed above.
The process which takes place
in the manufacturing Of these
items Is most interesting anC
certainly involves more thar
most Of us realize, as we us'

cream at the family picnic Of
mark our row Of tomatoes in oul
