Correcting the listing {{total edit request}}

Gentleman: My name is Burton Rubin. I invented e-z wider while attending Law School and it was some years later that I met Bob Stiller. I did all the research and business planning from my understanding and my education at the Stern School at NYU. Mr. Stiller invested the required funds for inventory. I left my Metals Trading position and worked solo at the company for 9 months before Mr. Stiller left his accounting position at Columbia University and joined the company actively.

    My responsibilities were sales and international purchasing. I traveled to Europe and the U.S. many times to put the business together. Mr. Stiller was responsible for Accounting,  and Manufacturing once I negotiated with the French Company, Machines Chambon to buy an interleaving machine.

Some references: Chapter 19, in Larry Sloman's Book, "Reefer Madness", is basically an interview with me. The Wall St. Journal dated Tuesday, September 23, 1975 had a front page article titled "Around These Joints..." which details e-z wider.

Tobacco Reporter, Vol. 102 August 1975 described the deal I put together with Spain's Largest Cigarette

Business Week published in their Marketing Observer a short story about e-z wider on December 15, 1975 when our sales were $4.4 million. It was $10 million when we sold the company in 1980.

Forbes Magazine had a full page article in the February 6, 1978 issue.

I was invited, and spoke to the Wharton School of Business Graduate Club in Entrepreneurship in 1977 and have a photo.{{edit request}}

P.S. Mr. Stiller did not start Green Mountain. He bought it from the original owner.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Burt Rubin (talk • contribs) 14:07, 28 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
