Answer 1

According to the Sharpie web site (http://www.sharpie.com/enUS/History/1850...

In 1857, Frederick W. Redington and William H. Sanford, Jr. founded the Sanford Manufacturing Company in Worcester, Massachusetts. The company focuses on producing and selling ink and glue. (Sharpies are made by the Sanford Company.)

In 1964, Sanford turns its focus to the emerging marker business and introduces the Sharpie marker. The Sharpie Fine Point black marker becomes the first pen-style permanent marker. It writes on almost any surface from glass, wood and stone, to plastic, metal and, of course, paper. NBC talk show hosts Johnny Carson and Jack Parr are some of the first celebrity endorsers.
