Original 1912 typed legal letter from San Francisco attorney Edmund Tauszky to fellow attorney Abraham Cox in New York. The letter discusses a trademark dispute involving the term “ESCO” used for hosiery by Henry Schiff & Co., referencing claims by a Mr. McCarthy who allegedly coined the term “ELEESO” in 1900. Notably, the letter mentions Levi Strauss & Co.\'s involvement and their refusal to accept a proposed settlement. An intriguing glimpse into early 20th-century trademark law and commercial competition.
