The Graphotype was made by the Addressograph-Multigraph Company which was formed in 1931-1932 when the Addressograph and the Multigraph Companies merged. This lead to a revolution in the printing industry.
The Addressograph Company was formed in 1892 by an Sioux City, Iowa miller, Joseph S. Duncan. He invented a machine that would address the envelopes of the grain bids he had to send out. This machine was very crude, all it did was imprint names and addresses from rubber type glued on a block of wood on to the envelope.
1976 - Addressograph-Multigraph Corporation sell off it's graphic services division to Graphco.
