An lmportant Message
from L. J. Garr Many rumors have been circulating about the status of Gordon-MacBeath Hardwood Co. . . . that there is no more Gordon-MacBeath . . . or that it is to be sold out.
I would like to clarify the uncertainty that has developed about this company.
In December, 1954, Gordon-MacBeath Hardwood Co. was purchased by L. J. Carr & Co., and we continued
to operate under the Gordon-MacBeath name. Most of the employees stayed on with the new ownership.
Now we are officially changing the name of our company to L. J. Carr & Co., Hardwood Division. This is another forward step in the program we began over three years ago. Under our new name, we will shortly be offering an expanded line of products and services as part of our goal to make the name of L. J. Carr & Co. one of the most thoroughly dependable in the lumber industry.
