Field notes
The site presents its history as a scroll-driven chronology, with a paperboard core unwinding one year per ply from 1935 to 2026. Entries connect family decisions to operational details: Walter Jr. left an engineering degree when his father fell ill, and the company later built a core machine in its own shop without prior staff experience. The page also lists 30+ supported schools, hospitals, shelters, and community groups; its grant totals are presented on two different bases.
