Griffith & Co became known as National Chicle in 1910.

Griffith and Co. 1901. I was going to guess 1899 but was already taken.

Louis Chaldecott the secretory and treasurer committed suicide in March 22nd of 1907 and it was already known as National Chicle Co. then.

Per the national Corporation Reporter Volume 39, the name was changed from Griffith & Co to National Chicle Gum Company in 1910. That said, I am not sure if that answers Leon's original question or not, as I do not know if a name change is what he was looking for.

I believe that this post qualifies as a Molina (post too slow). See #5 in this thread.

OK, have only a moment at the moment. I don't see the correct answer above yet. At the end, if no one gets what I am looking for, I will show what I have and declare a winner. It wasn't 1934.
