Getting to the Bottom of Things…

It’s always important to get to the bottom of things.  This phrase certainly rang true two weeks ago as we delved into the Dennison Manufacturing Company’s historical corporate archives.  An unassuming box of full of cancelled checks stored in old bank envelopes held a surprising treasure.  As we dug deeper into the box, folded and nestled at its very bottom, was an illustrated sheet of music called The Tag Waltz.  The waltz was written to celebrate Dennison’s 50th anniversary – 1844-1894.  A second look really paid off.  What a find!
