Hi Eric,
Happy to share more about it!
Alderman-Fairchild Company was based in Rochester, NY, a manufacturer of cardboard boxes for hats, dresses, candy, shoes, suits, etc. The principals were Harry Alderman and Elmer Fairchild.
In 1922 the Alderman-Fairchild Company diversified its product line to include games and toys which it marketed under the "All-Fair Toys and Games" label. Beginning in 1926 the toys and games were manufactured at a plant in Churchville, NY under the management of Herman Fisher. Mr. Fisher built a reputation as an innovator and created a unique process for evaluating new toys and games. This process involved inviting children with their parents to the plant in Churchville for a day of fun and play.
