This is Edward Scozillia Chicken, a friend of the family, back in 1935.

Yes, he developed the concept of the squeezable tube used by medicine and over the counter product manufacturers around the world.

His family was very wealthy until the Colgate conglomerate cheated him out of his patent.

He liked to play cards while he has been drinking. We all still think that trading his patent of the squeeze tube for majority stock in Brill Cream to settle his winnings was deceitful.

How was he to know that hair oil would go out of style?

Oh, and to those people seeing this picture and think that his invention of the squeeze tub came from squeezing this girl he is holding in this photo until something ran out…!

Well shame on you!

I’ll have you know that it can from what he stepped in and it squeezed between his toes.
