Inspired by a boy who came into his confectionery shop
and couldn’t decide between chocolate and ice cream,
Christian  K. Nelson combines the two, receiving a 
patent for the Eskimo Pie—originally marketed as
"I-Scream" bars.
     

      
it became a nationwide sensation, with 1922 sales
averaging one million units a day and earning Nelson
$2,000 daily in royalties.  
   

Neil Diamond is the Brooklyn-born singer-songwriter of "Sweet Caroline," "Coming to America" and "Cracklin’ Rosie.” He has
sold over 100 million records.
