About Sigmund Ullmann

Sigmund was an important manufacturer of printing ink, the first in the United States to make colored ink for glossy paper. His firm also made a lithographer’s proof ink of unusually high quality. Sigmund Ullman’s interest in chemistry was not only related to the production of ink but to its artistic use. As an admirer of Renaissance art, he believed Italians to be especially gifted in understanding color gradations and hence favored immigrants from that country when in need of employees. Of his four sons, one became a chemist but died in his early twenties and two others took over the management of the Sigmund Ullman Printing Ink Company.
