Business

Last week's trivia answer

I was born in Brooklyn in 1938. My chewing gum was considered a "changemaker," as it was positioned near cash registers, attracting people's pennies. After World War II, I introduced Bazooka Joe bubble gum, after Atom Bubble Boy failed to take off. In 1951, I introduced baseball trading cards. Now I offer not only basketball, football and soccer cards, but also Obama and other specialty cards. I'm an international marketer of collectible trading cards, confections (such as Ring Pops, Push Pops and Baby Bottle Pops), stickers, games and more. I take in around $300 million annually. Who am I?
