The Rise of the National Lead Trust in White Lead
The United States white lead industry is described as dominated by the National Lead Company, formed in 1887 and expanded to 31 firms by 1890. The trust controls most production from ore to finished white lead, with price increases driven by monopoly rather than cost savings, despite initial losses and ongoing rebates to large buyers.
