By HENRY J. BECHTOLD
UPI Financial Editor
New York-fflPD-Lost in the
background of today's chang
ing business scene are those
companies whose history par
allel the development of our
nation.
Of all the streets in New
York the one most likely to
present an historical atmos
phere of solidity and tradition
is Wall Street.
Servicing this financial
community is the oldest busi
ness establishment operating
under the same name since its
founding in New York, and
one of the oldest in America
-Bowne and Co., printing
firm.
This historic firm was es
tablished by Robert Bowne
and two associates in 1775
and, in addition to printing,
offered for sale, according to
an advertisement of the day:
"Writing paper, English and
American; account books:
quills and pens; binding and
printing materials; bolting
cloths; powder, furs, nails,
glass and dry goods; pitch
pine boards and a few cases
of low priced cutlery."
Bowne prospered in his new
enterprise, but was forced to
leave his business and New
York in 1776 in the wake of
General Howe's troops. After
the war he returned to find
the area below Wall Street a
charred ruin, but he and oth
ers rebuilt the community.
And it was at this time that
the founder decided to give up
his wide selection of merchan
dise and specialize in printing
supplies and printing.
Bowe became typical of the
18th Century New York busi
nessman. Successful with his
printing business, he turned
his efforts to piiilanlhropy,
and helped organize a free
school and the New York hos
pital. He also helped organize the
city's first bank - the Bank of
New York. The first checks
issued bear the imprint of
Bowne and Co., printers to
the financial community. '
When Bowne died n 1818,
he and the company he had
founded had become an in
tegral part of New York and
the young nation. As his sons
and their sons took over, its
history paralleled that of Wall
Street and the nation.
