Emerson Drug Company : ウィキペディア英語版 | Isaac Edward Emerson
Captain Isaac Edward Emerson (1859–1931) was a wealthy American businessman, socialite, and seaman. He is most notable for having created the headache remedy Bromo-Seltzer upon which his great wealth was based. ==Bromo-Seltzer King== Issac Edward Emerson was born in 1859 in Chatham County, North Carolina, the son of a farmer. When his mother died prematurely, he went to live with his aunt and uncle. He later graduated as a chemist from the University of North Carolina in 1879. After moving to Baltimore in 1880, he opened a small drug store where he developed a formula for a headache remedy. He patented the formula, named it Bromo-Seltzer and began marketing it. He formed the Emerson Drug Company in 1887 and, recognizing the importance of advertising in selling products, undertook worldwide ad campaigns in newspaper, magazine, in-store ads and on radio which rocketed the sales of Bromo-Seltzer and other products producing his great wealth. In 1911, Emerson built the Emerson Bromo-Seltzer Tower, a well known landmark in Baltimore, Maryland. The tower originally featured a 51-foot revolving Bromo-Seltzer bottle on top and was the tallest building in Baltimore until 1923.〔(Kelly, Jacques. "Bromo Seltzer Tower celebrates 100 years," ''The Baltimore Sun'', Friday, June 3, 2011. )〕 He built the Emerson Hotel. He was controlling owner of the Maryland Glass Corporation, which made the blue glass bottles for his Bromo-Seltzer medication.
