History
Established in 1959.
1959 - Everything started in Nelson Gall's basement. His Equipment consisted of a hand pumped hydraulic press to laminate news clippings sandwiched between sheets of vinyl.
1965 - Martha's neighbors, the Imhoff's, often helped out, which lead them to purchase the business.
1976 - Gall relocated to an oversized garage on Grant Street in Lancaster City. A lease was signed that guaranteed the building to the company for 10 years and provided the extra space needed to grow.
1980 - Jay Horning, present owner, worked part-time at Gall while attending college and in Dec. became a full-time employee. More equipment was added and soon space was scarce as the 10 year lease came to an end
1994 - When the Imhoff's retired, the business was purchased by Jay.
2000 - Gall Laminating transitioned to the old Raub Supply building at 315 West James Street, Ste.105
2013 - Present - Purchase of a finishing company added coil & perfect binding, twin loop, and saddle stitching to Gall's list of capabilities.
