My name is Jim Cannon and I have been with Xerox Corp., the USA manufacturer
of copiers for 30 years. I assure you there is NO connection with Canon,
the company, and the Cannon name. Canon is an old Janpenese company that
was around years before WWII.

Does anyone know which Cannon is connected to the Canon copiers etc that
have a Japan origin. I remember that after ww2, USA sent technology to
Japan and Germany to get them set up in business again. Free of copyrights,
if I am not mistaken.
Also, what/who was the origin of Cannon cotton towels here in the USofA..
When I buy these products, are they American Cannons?
