Title	National Cash Register Company Postcards
Subject	Business and Labor NCR Corporation Gardens Factories
Place	Dayton (Ohio) Montgomery County (Ohio) Mowrystown (Ohio) Highland County (Ohio)
Description	These four 3.4" by 5.4" (8.6 by 13.7cm) postcards depict scenes at the National Cash Register Company in Dayton. The first is entitled "The Vista" and shows the exterior view of company's headquarters. The second image depicts the visitor reception room. The boys' garden and the factory at quitting time are seen in the third and fourth postcards. These postcards were never sent but are part of the Lloyd Burdette Mignerey Collection. The reverse sides are blank. John H. Patterson founded the National Cash Register Company in Dayton, Ohio. Patterson (1844-1922), hoping the machines could save him money by reducing accounting errors in his supply business, purchased the patent rights to the cash register from James Ritty in 1884. Within six months, he reduced his debt and showed a profit. Patterson built the first National Cash Register factory on his family farm in Dayton in 1888. By the turn of the century, the company had become one of the largest employers in Dayton. Known for his strict training program for salespeople and health and education programs for employees, Patterson was closely involved in the daily lives of many of his employees.
