3 ADMINISTRATIVE HISTORY 9/223/1 F.T. Wimble & Co were the manufacturers of the first printing ink produced in the Southern hemisphere (Melbourne, 1868). In addition to printing ink manufacture, type founding and electrotyping, Wimble's were the Australian representatives of many overseas manufacturers of printing machinery and accessories. Frederick Thomas Wimble ( ) was the son of Benjamin Wimble of Cambridge and grandson of Thomas Wimble of London. The family had been pioneers in the making of printing ink since They were the suppliers to Cambridge University Press. F.T. Wimble emigrated to Australia for his health, landing in Melbourne on 29 July He began his business by importing inks to sell. Soon, however, he imported a printing ink plant and produced the first printing ink made in Australia. By the 1880s Wimble's was supplying all types of printers' needs. Wimble's transferred their head office to Sydney in 1877, with premises successively at 2 Hamilton Street, Clarence Street, c.1883, Mascot (varnish works), 1916, 3-43 Clarence Street, 1922 and finally at Rydalmere, 193. The business expanded and established offices in Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane and Perth and Wellington and Christchurch, New Zealand. In the 1980s it established international operations in Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, China, and Fiji. F.T. Wimble was friend of many newspaper proprietors - Bonython, Fairfax, Murdoch, Syme, MacDonald and Archibald. During F.T. Wimble was in Cairns, where he established the Cairns Post and became the area's first representative to the Queensland Assembly F.T. Wimble remained as Chairman of the Company when it went public on the Sydney Stock Exchange in 1920 and stayed there until his death in George B. Wimble, his son, continued the business. The family stayed in control until 1970 when the Board arranged for an investment company, guided by Mr Harry Wallace, to acquire control. In 197 Mr Wallace became Chairman of Directors following the purchase by his family of 100% of the issued ordinary capital. In 1991 the company's Ink Division and its affiliate Colorpak were acquired by the Swiss-based international ink maker SICPA. The company archives and printing museum were transferred to FTW & Co, wholly owned by Mr Wallace. The printing museum had developed from Harry Wallace's interest in collecting old printing presses and related equipment. The museum's curator was retired staff member Ralph Grisdale, who had worked for Wimble's, Colleagues augmented the archives by sending Wallace items of interest. The archives and many of the museum items were acquired by the Powerhouse Museum in 199. Significant contributions made by Wimble's to the Australian printing industry include: - produced Australia's first printing ink in participated in the printing of the Evening Star of 4 May 1868, which was printed on the first paper manufactured in Australia (manufactured by Ramsden Paper Mills) - "the first marriage of Australian ink and Australian paper". - produced first Australian manufactured coloured postage stamp ink (in response to a call for help from S.A. Government) - sold to J.F. Archibald and John Haynes the printing press to start The Bulletin. - first to patent composition roller material for presses. - first lithographic and gravure ink producer in Australia. - introduced electrotyping and stereotyping to Australia - published the Wimble's reminder, a trade journal which as well as advertising Wimble products, featured news of developments in printing technology, government printing offices, industrial information, happenings at local newspaper offices, obituaries of printing and publishing figures, etc. References The evolution of printing ink: jubilee souvenir of Wimble's, Ltd.
