replies: text: Where in the world are you getting that idea from?  Care to produce a reliable source?  I don't know anything about the Greeting card industry, but a simple Google search doesn't produce any information that would support that.  You'd think there would be at least a passing mention in the WSJ or other business newspaper if one company had purchased the other.--Isotope23 17:30, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: I know that Miracleimpuse has been blocked for disruption, but for the record, American Greetings' SEC filings describe Hallmark as the company's largest competitor, and there are no Form 13D's on file as would be required if Hallmark (or anyone else) owned more than 5% of American Greetings' stock.

I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

message: A user named Fcirillo2010 keeps turning this article into blatant advertising for the company. If this doesn't stop, either I or somebody will need to request that this article be protected. Worst case scenario, we may need to have this user blocked. I'm going to be checking back periodically to make sure things are on the up and up.Brittany Ka (talk) 00:38, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

message: William E. Simon's company took the company private in 1982 which means that Westray acquired the publicly traded shares. The firm was taken public again in 1984. The Edgar database does not go that far back so the details, including the financial impact on the company, are not generally available. If Gibson benefited from this transaction, that would be unique. Simon left behind a trail of destruction.
