Charles W. Hoyt Company records, 1894-1973.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/43738663

The records of the Charles W. Hoyt Company primarily document the founding and operation of the company, and to a lesser extent, they document the personal activities of the Hoyt family (Charles, Effie, Winthrop, and Everett) and Winthrop's service during World War II in the U.S. Army Air Force. Materials include correspondence, scrapbooks, company publications and manuals, financial records, clippings, diaries, writings, drawings, photographs, house advertisements, Nazi medals, song lyrics, and printed material. Very little information exists in the collection concerning the Hoyt company's clients. The only client advertisements that survive were produced for Merck & Co. The company scrapbooks document some activities for clients including KLM, Jamaica Tourist Board, State of New Hampshire, Golden Blossom Honey, Stanley Home Products, and Arnold Bakers. The collection contains correspondence between family members and between the company and Merck & Co., the Charles B. Knox Co., and William Benton.
