The Tin Can (Click Magazine, 1945)

"An English engraver, Thomas Kensett, who came to the U.S. in 1812 is responsible for the huge tin can industry.

The early records of accomplishment in the use of group psychotherapy for weigh control proved so remarkable in the Forties that the method soon spread throughout North America and the world."
