Crayola Facts


Since I just posted two color songs, I thought I'd give you some Crayola facts.


From its earliest beginnings, Crayola has been a color company. We came into
being when cousins Edwin Binney and C. Harold Smith took over Edwin’s father’s
pigment business in 1885. More than 120 years later, color – along with
creativity, learning and most of all, fun – is the hallmark of our
company.
Crayola has called Easton, Pennsylvania its home since the early
1900s. Today, the company’s world headquarters and major manufacturing
facilities are located there. And downtown Easton is the home of The Crayola
FACTORY® , a one-of-a-kind celebration of creative fun for everyone!
In 1984, Crayola became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hallmark Cards and has since played the lead role in Hallmark’s personal development strategies.
