In 1897 '''Ferdinand Feuerbach''' joined the Demuth company and by 1903 had become the production manager. Feuerbach is credited with developing Demuth's popular ''Royal Demuth'' and ''Hesson Guard Milano'' pipelines. He left in 1919, when Sam Frank Sr. needed an experienced pipe man to run his pipe factory, located at 168 Southern Blvd., in the Bronx. Feuerbach and Frank had been close friends since Frank started his own business in 1900 and was closely associated with the sales staff of WDC, selling their line of pipes. | [[File:Hesson-Guard-1943.jpg|thumb|1943 Hessen Guard Ad, courtesy Doug Valitchka]]In 1897 '''Ferdinand Feuerbach''' joined the Demuth company and by 1903 had become the production manager.
