Thanks for this, David. I passed it along to George Vrechek, whose response is below. If anybody is able to help him, let me know.

Marchant bought from Chet Gore who took over (eventually) from founder J. Frank Meyer.
The other guys who might help me are Bob Schulhof, Sheldon Goldberg and Steve Reeves, but I can’t find them either.
