Naturally, we thought it referred to some peculiar breed of fox hunting—led by a master of foxhounds in a silly hunt cap chasing a red fox. Nothing could be further from the truth. It’s about […]

“What The Bunk?” We recently received a phone call with a unique request. The label seeker declared a need for “bunk tags” to track their inventory. Admittedly, we were a little perplexed by the phrase, but here at EIM, we love a new challenge! As it turned out, they worked for a leading casket manufacturer. […]
