This 32-page booklet, produced by the Champion Coated Paper Company, details its papermaking operation in detail, including information on its North Carolina plant in Canton. In the early part of the 20th century, Champion Mills was among the largest in the industry with 58 acres of floor space at their home plant in Hamilton, Ohio. Producing 130,000 tons of paper each year, Champion was a full-service factory, producing spruce and other lumber, trimmings for pulp, and bark for tanneries. The company operated the largest tannin extract plant in the world, much of it used for export. Champion had its own lime kiln and coal mine in nearby Tennessee. The brochure is illustrated throughout with detailed, black and white engravings by artist and illustrator, Glen Tracy (1883-1956).
