Take advantage of S and S Worldwide\'s fantastic selection of Party Supplies. Aaron Schwartz founded S&S Worldwide in 1906, while still a recent immigrant from Russia. At that time the company, called S&S Leather, dealt in scrap leather which was often used for small handicrafts. Located in New York City, the center of the leather trade, S&S Leather sold kits to make comb cases, purses and hair curlers, all of which quickly became popular items with charitable organizations that provided for the disabled. Hospitals and other institutions soon became substantial customers. As the company grew, Aaron moved his family and the small firm from the ever-hectic city to rural Colchester, Connecticut, where it remains to the present day.
