First Versions: Pampers (diapers)
Interesting facts: 37,000 diapers were hand-sewn for the Rochester, NY test market in 1959. The first machine-made product was test marketed in Peoria, Illinois, in 1961, the year Mills retired. The diaper was available in 2 sizes and the average price was 10 cents each; consumer feedback was that the diapers were too expensive for everyday use.
