Mather & Company printed approximately 350 motivational work-incentive posters between 1923 and 1929, some by commercial artists such as Willard Frederic Elmes and Robert Beebe, but most are anonymous. The printing house was a family-owned and managed business by Harry Mather and his son Charles Mather. Salesman Charles Rosenfeld, who purportedly suggested the idea of the workplace posters to Charles Mather, left the company in 1925 to create his own poster and postcard-printing company, C.J. Howard Inc.
