Abstract

The article focuses on Gibson Lee, Inc., a maker of paper collars and dickies, based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The product's ancient history is considered a reminder that the throw-away market is not a 20th Century invention. Employees of the company cut, shape and stitch the collars with old machinery. The strategy of William B. Snow, president, in running his business is described.
