The Edwin M. Knowles Company was established in Chester, West Virginia, but moved to Newell, West Virginia, in 1900. In later years, a newphew, Fred B. Lawrence, Sr., took over management of the Company. Efforts to find a buyer for the plant in 1962 proved futile. In 1963, Robert Boyce and a Mr. Tuck, area businessman, bought the Knowles real estate.
Reco International was founded by Heio W. Reich in 1967. The company became established as a leading manufacturer and distributor of high quality, limited edition collectibles. Reich, a native of Berlin, Germany won many awards for developing and importing elegant works, from some of Europe's leading factories and art studios like: KPM Berlin, Furstenberg, Dresden, Royal Germania Crystal, Kings Fine Porcelain, Moser and many more. In the mid 1970's, Reich developed a relationship with this Artist, with whom was developed, many artistic and beautiful children's works of art.
