Warren L. Green became president of the Company in 1906, beginning an eventful administration which was to continue until his death in 1919. He was a nephew of former President James Macdonough and had begun his bank note career as a designer at the old 142 Broadway plant in 1882. In 1906 a holding company, United Bank Note Corporation, was formed to acquire the stock of the American Bank Note Company. Its president, Edmund C. Converse, who for two years had been chairman of American Bank Note, was a prominent industrialist and one of the founders of Bankers Trust Company as well as president of National Tube Company. He was a brother-in-law of Warren L. Green. In 1911 American Bank Note Company was merged into United Bank Note Corporation and the resulting corporation was continued as the American Bank Note Company.
