---ABOUT THE OHIO ART COMPANY---
Henry Winzeler started up his own manufacturing company in 1908. He rented an area to work in Archbold, Ohio and named it The Ohio Art Company because of its location and his interest in art. The company moved locations in 1912 to Bryan, Ohio where it became even more successful. The Ohio Art Company then installed metal lithography equipment that was used to produce picture frames made out of wood-grained metal sheets. In 1917, The Ohio Art Company began manufacturing toys. After World War I, the toy company grew at a rapid rate, leading to the introduction of colorful tea sets and drums.
