CLAY-ADAMS COMPANY, INC.
Clay-Adams Company was a manufacturer and importer of laboratory, surgical, and medical supplies. These included the ‘Gold Seal Micro Cover Glasses’ and ‘Gold Seal Micro Slides’. These were made and packed in their New York City work rooms from glass produced in the United States. The microscope slides and cover slips were favored by pathologists and anatomists.
The company was founded in 1916 and was run from 1916 to 1935 by Robert Louis Toplitz (c. 1851-1935).
In 1964 Clay-Adams became a division of Becton, Dickinson and Company, the medical technology company. Clay-Adams relocated to Parsippany, New Jersey around 1969-1970.
