About this product

Product Information

Dime Store Dynasty of J.H. Miller is an Autobiographical novel of entrepreneurial achievement of the American Dream in mid-twentieth century America. The story is framed by historical events of the era. Artisans who contributed to the success of the company are showcased as well as their artistic contributions which are significant in their own right. While working a refreshment venue at the 1938 World's Fair, John Hardin Miller discovered he was not cut out to be an employee, he had to be his own man. He had to forge his own path to success. Starting in his basement in Evanston, Illinois he found success in becoming a millionaire by age 24. Although the stars were aligned and the right people came along at the right time, he still suffered the agony of loss along the way. However, he never suffered defeat. Neither, family loss, tragic fire, nor Corporate-America shenanigan's were able to deter him from his lifetime of achievements. His wife Shirley was his mainstay as were his father Ray and brothers Max and Gene.Over a dozen U.S Patents as well as several international patents were granted for his inventions. Significant among them was his molding machine which he identified as Mold-A-Rama. The brand survives today under the "Mold-A-Rama Incorporated" trademark. The machines are found in museums parks, and zoo's where young patrons thrill to watch plastic souvenirs as they are molded before them. John Miller also founded the Olympic program known as "Future Olympic Champions" which provided schools across the country to award certificates and a trophy of Olympic recognition to athletic students. Each Easter season, yards and bushes are adorned with pastel plastic Easter eggs which are the invention of J.H. Miller. In addition, since before WWII Christmas Nativity displays made in his facilities still adorn homes yet today. All of Miller's children were extraordinary achievers as well and their stories are woven into the fabric of the book as well. Twenty years in the writing, it represents the true American Dream.
