About

Charles Sumner Tainter (1854–1940) was a scientist and inventor. They were born in Watertown.

In context

Columbia Graphophone Co. Ltd. was founded in 1917 and closed in 1973, after 56 years. Among the 56 other phonographic industry companies we hold, those that closed lasted a median of 30 years, so this one outlasted most of them.
