Posters of Wrigley's chewing gum from the 30s (5 photos)

You might be surprised to learn that Wrigley’s didn’t originally intend to sell chewing gum! In 1891, William Wrigley Jr. founded a company that sold… soap. To attract customers, he added gum as a gift with purchases. But it soon turned out that customers liked the gum itself much more than the main product. As a result, Wrigley’s completely switched to producing chewing gum, and soap became a thing of the past.
