1. WORKING CRAYONS

First in a series about American Crayon Company history. I call this installment Working Crayons. ACC created railroad crayons for marking critical points on the rails, carpenters chalk for marking building materials & tailor’s chalk for marking fabric. ACC even created a Crayon for marking cattle and livestock called Brandum.
