1Title:  Acme-Cleveland Corporation Records, Photographs, and Audio/Visual Materials, Series II     
 Creator:  Acme-Cleveland Corporation 
 Dates:  1825-1996 
 Abstract:  The Acme-Cleveland Corporation was formed In Cleveland, Ohio, by the merger in 1968 of Cleveland Twist Drill Company, a manufacturer of high-speed drills and metal cutting tools, and the National Acme Company, a manufacturer of automatic multiple-spindle lathes and screw machines. Cleveland Twist Drill was founded in 1876 by Jacob D. Cox II, son of a Civil War general and former governor of Ohio, and Francis F. Prentiss. The company became a leader in the manufacture of superior-grade high-speed twist drills. By 1936 it was the world's largest maker of high-speed drills and reamers, flourishing under Jacob D. Cox, Jr., who pioneered profit-sharing and authored two books on wage theory. National Acme originated in Hartford, Connecticut, as the Acme Screw Machine Company in 1895, makers of the first commercially successful automatic multiple-spindle screw manufacturing machine. Acme Screw merged with National Manufacturing Co. in 1901 to become National Acme Manufacturing Company, which purchased the Windsor Machine Company to become National Acme Company in 1916. The collection consists of financial reports, ledgers, shareholder meetings, company newsletters, marketing material, and correspondence, particularly those of Francis F. Prentiss, who was president of Cleveland Twist Drill between 1904 and 1911. There is also a large collection of photographs and glass plate negatives, approximately 1000 images, related to both Cleveland Twist Drill Company and National Acme Company and a 16mm film.

 Dates:  1881-1996 
 Abstract:  The Centerior Energy Corporation was founded in 1892 in Cleveland, Ohio, as the Cleveland General Electric Company, with a franchise from the General Electric Company of Boston, Massachusetts. In 1893, assets of the Brush Electric Light and Power Company and of the Cleveland Electric Light Company were transferred to the Cleveland General Electric Company, forming the nucleus of a new organization. On July 21, 1894, the name of the company was changed to the Cleveland Electric Illuminating Company (CEI). In 1926, the company purchased the Cleveland, Painesville and Eastern Railroad Company and its subsidiary, The United Light and Power Company. Other power companies in the northeastern Ohio region were purchased during this time. In 1947 control of the company returned to the hands of public investors, and new power plants continued to be added to the system. The company's first nuclear power plant, the Davis-Besse facility, became fully operational in 1978. A second nuclear power facility, the Perry Nuclear Power Plant, was subsequently added. In 1986 Centerior Energy Corporation, an affiliation between CEI and the Toledo Edison Company, was formed to become one of the largest electric systems in the United States. In 1996, Centerior Energy Corporation and the Ohio Edison Company merged into a new holding company, First Energy Corporation. The collection consists of articles of incorporation, annual reports, bylaws, histories, correspondence, legal briefs, financial records, handbooks, speeches, pamphlets, publications, oral history transcriptions, organizational charts, rate schedules, magazine and newspaper clippings, and scrapbooks.

12Title:  Republic Steel Corporation Records     
 Creator:  Republic Steel Corporation 
 Dates:  1895-2001 
 Abstract:  The Republic Steel Corporation was formed in April 1930 from several smaller iron and steel companies, including Republic Iron and Steel, Central Alloy Corporation, Bourne-Fuller Company and Donner Steel Company. Corrigan McKinney Steel Company, Truscon Steel Company, and Gulf States Steel were acquired 1935-1937, and the company headquarters was moved from Youngstown, Ohio, to Cleveland, Ohio. The company included basic steel operations in Ohio, Buffalo, New York, Chicago, Illinois, Gadsden, Alabama, and elsewhere, as well as rolling mills, speciality steel operations, iron ore and coal mines, maritime operations, and research laboratories. During the 1980s, economic losses became severe, and in 1984 Jones and Laughlin Steel Corporation merged with Republic Steel, creating LTV Steel Company, a subsidiary of LTV Corporation.
