Question: Peeps 55 or older please: When were the first home label makers on the market!?
I have searched the net and can find no information on the year when the label makers were first introduced to the public!. I am of course referring to the old hand held label makers that would type in a name or what ever on plastic tape!. Any clue to when they were first in popular use would be a great help to me!. Thanks for all of your answers in advance!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
The first label maker was intoduced in 1958 by the DYMO Corporation (I'm under 55 , but I know this because my Dad used to brag that he had one of the very first ones, and I remember him saying when he bought it!.)
