I just found a copy of their Wooden Parquetry set (no.3661) from the early 70s (?) at a thrift store. The address printed on that box says Oak Lawn, Illinois 60453, so perhaps they moved their headquarters later? I hope to learn more about their history soon!
I came across an old “Harmon Jump Board mfg by Ideal School Supply”…printed on the back, many years ago when an old school was demolished in Sidney, I’ll. It is a spring board used by gymnastics. I was just wondering if you are the company that made it and if so can you tell me it’s history. Thanks for your time.
