The Fox company started as a small photo studio by a man named Arthur C. Fox in San Antonio, Texas. Carl Newton, a Canadian, moved to San Antonio and purchased the studio at the end of 1909, as amateur photography was in its infancy. Newton began what by 1920 was the largest mail order photofinishing business in the world. Through acquisitions and mergers Fox Photo became Fox-Stanley Photo Products Inc. when it merged with the Stanley company in 1961. Carl Newton Jr. along with Stanley Wurtz of Stanley Photo (St. Louis based) expanded their primarily photofinishing-based company to 23 states and eventually traded the public company stock on the NYSE.
