In January of 2015, I visited John Butler in his Lewiston, Maine home. At the time, John was 93, He went to work everyday for two hours. In the mid-1930's his Uncle Jim Butler invented the Butler Head Numbers. When John came back from World War II, his uncle asked him to join the company. John's first day of work was at the Cumberland Fairgrounds. Quickly, John decided this work was not for him. He did, however, with his brother Frank invent and hold the patent on the clip version of the Butler Head Number. (Interview by Stephen D. Thompson)
