It all began with some
pastry cutters and two dollars cash. Ben Abbott and his wife
Doris found themselves at the 1949
Canadian National Exhibition,
demonstrating kitchen gadgets to the crowd who were mesmerized
by Ben's true enthusiasm for his
product. The 3,000 cutters had
cleared customs just the night before, and were all sold within
one day!
Abbott's
philosophy is seamless service with high fulfillment.
Seeing what you see. |

A napkin is a ‛little tablecloth’ [from the old French
word ‛nape’ and ‛kin’, meaning little]. Before forks were
invented and used in 15th Century Italy, gentlemen and
ladies ate with their fingers and frequently had to wipe them...they
could not, with dignity, lick them, as did the common folk.
Thus, the napkin was invented. We feature Print Appeal’s
signature gold initial-cap napkins in beverage and luncheon sizes.
Also available in silver. |
