Swanee Paper
Corporation manufactured paper in Ransom, Pennsylvania, United States. The paper mill still exists, although the company does not. In 1998, Pope & Talbot sold the 55,000 tons-per-year paper mill to Plainwell, Inc. As a result of Plainwell's November 2000 chapter 11 reorganization petition in federal bankruptcy court, the mill was sold to Perkins Papers, Ltd., a part of Canadian company Cascades, Inc., in 2001.
An A&P advertisement on page 11 of the April 13, 1960 Gettysburg Times showed Swanee paper towels for sale. The mill now makes private label tissue, towel, and napkin products.
Box of tissues is new, unopened although the plastic wrap does have a rip across the top.
