The article discusses the growth of Minnesota Mining & Manufacturing Co. (3M) as of 1964. With its acquisition of Ferrania, S.p.A., 3M has added 5,400 employees and gained a nearly 50 million dollar a year foothold in the European photographic industry. 3M is best known for producing Scotch Tape, but it has become less and less important in the company's business. It notes the benefits of its partnership with Thermo-Fax for its image-forming business.
