Leanin' Tree -- Lassoing New Offerings

Collecting Collating Info

This prompted a comprehensive re-evaluation of their overall collating requirements, which ultimately led to the installation in May of a Vijuk Setmaster collator equipped with deep pile feeding stations.

Originally called the Lazy RL Ranch, the company was founded in Fort Collins, CO, by Ed Trumble, chairman, and his partner, Bob Lorenz, in 1949. Three years later the firm moved to Boulder, where it was reorganized and renamed Leanin' Tree Publishing. Assuming sole ownership in 1965, Ed Trumble split the organization into two separate companies in the late 1980s, with the Consumer Div. becoming Trumble Greetings, and the manufacturing, product development and Trade Div. taking the name Leanin' Tree Inc.
