The best-known photographer for the company was William Henry Jackson, who joined the company in 1897. The company acquired exclusive rights to use a form of photography processing called Photochrom. Photochrom allowed for the company to mass-market postcards and other materials in color.

By the time of World War I, the company faced declining sales both due to the war economy and the competition from cheaper, more advanced printing methods.
