The Vim Company

The Vim Company was founded in 1896 in Chicago, Illinois, and it was active in labeling records in the first decade of the 20th century.[1] Vim was primarily a sporting goods store but also sold bicycles and electrical goods. The owner and president of the company was Leon Atwell Olmsted, a native of New York who moved to Chicago in the 1890s. After opening his first store in 1896, he eventually expanded to seven stores in Chicago and another ten throughout the nation.
