Dayton, Ohio, transformed from a small river trading post into one of America's most inventive and productive industrial powerhouses before facing a major manufacturing decline in the late 20th century. Dayton had more patents per capita than any other U.S. city, and one in six of the nation’s corporate executives had spent part of their career at the legendary National Cash Register Co. Beginning in the mid-1800s, Dayton rose as a hub of manufacturing and entrepreneurship. Companies such as NCR, the Barney & Smith Car Company, McCall’s Publishing, DELCO, the Wright Company, and the Huffy Corporation set the city apart as a center of innovation and forward-thinking.
