We recently came across historic photos from the early 1900’s when the first domestic enterprise, the Intercontinental Rubber Company, produced guayule rubber from plants grown in California. During WWII when America’s supply of natural rubber is cut off by the Japanese, the U.S. government purchased IRC to scale up a U.S. rubber industry.
