Hall of Fame--A Major Leaguer

Enter fellow 2000 Printing Industry Hall of Fame inductee Oscar Carlson, then the CEO of the Beddor Group under owner Frank Beddor, himself a former Hall of Fame inductee. Bracken and Carlson began negotiating the sale of Danner Press to the Beddor Group, and the sale was completed in 1983. That paved the way for Bracken, in tandem with the Beddor Group, to construct The Press of Ohio. The company was sold to Hess Management Co. in 1991 along with Danner Press and the D.B. Hess Co.
