The Crayola company has been around since 1885. Their long and colored 120 year history is something to really marvel at and it is obvious they have evolved greatly over time.
Pictured in the above gallery are some Crayola boxes that range from the earliest boxes released, to ones launched in the late 80s with convenient built-in crayon sharpeners. Look at that cutting-edge technology.
Since its beginnings in Easton, Pennsylvania, Crayola is one company that has strong roots and a brand that will never go out of style.
