NOTES:
 
    Ed Maynard Inc. of Plymouth New Hampshire was a company started up in 1932, by John Edward Maynard, son of John Fernando Maynard, co-founder of the Draper and Maynard Sporting Goods Co.

 Founded by Jason Draper and John F. Maynard in 1881, the D&M Company became a pioneer in the manufacture of baseball gloves when it produced a padded model at the suggestion of a baseball player. In 1900 Draper-Maynard opened a new factory in Plymouth and became a major supplier of baseball equipment for both amateur and professional teams. The business closed in Plymouth in 1937 after the death of John F. Maynard. That same year, P. Goldsmith Sons Company of Cincinnati, Ohio, purchased the rights to produce sporting goods bearing the Draper-Maynard name and Lucky Dog trademark. Goldsmith stopped manufacturing Draper-Maynard products in 1962 when they merged with MacGregor Sporting Goods.

 John F. Maynard was a co-founder along with Jason Draper of the Draper-Maynard Sporting Goods Co. in 1881. Maynard married Jason Draper's sister and in 1885, they had a son, John Edward Maynard. John Jr. used his middle name Ed to avoid confusion in the household. By 1914 Edward was an officer and shareholder in the Draper Maynard Co. He became a spokesman for the company and did much of the public relations. It is noted that Ed was responsible for having Babe Ruth come to the D&M factory.

 John Maynard Sr. retired from D&M some time around 1929-30. Since Jason Draper had died back in 1913, the company was turned over to the sons of both men to run. In 1932 John E. Maynard incorporated the Ed Maynard's Sporting Goods company, manufacturers of outdoor clothing, and of sports equipment that included tennis rackets, Skis, uniforms, baseball gloves, and bats. The baseball bats are extremely rare. Ed Maynard Inc. filed for bankruptcy in 1941.
