-There is no record of who specifically 'made' Elmer's Glue, -I suspect, that like many new innovations, it was developed by a scientific team. There is no actual person called 'Elmer' connected with this.
The Borden Dairy company introduced Elmer's Glue in 1947. It had been marketing a line of glue called 'Cascorez', made from milk products. -The new glue was entirely synthetic, but sales were slow until they introduced 'Elmer the Bull' , husband of their long time mascot, 'Elsie the Cow'. Since then Elmer has represented all of Borden Chemical's glues.
