Abstract
This document provides information on the history and ownership changes of Heber Wells, a wood type manufacturing company. In 1890, Heber Wells became the sole owner of the company after purchasing his partner's shares. The company changed locations multiple times before filing for bankruptcy in 1899 and being acquired by The Hamilton Manufacturing Co. The document also emphasizes the importance of accurately identifying and dating wood type blocks and discusses the development of a list of manufacturer's stamps used by wood type manufacturers.
