Gardner Denver bought the former Champion in Princeton in 1998 and has brought several new products to the facility on North Euclid Avenue. (BCR photo)

This is a 1924 model air compressor made in Champion when the company was in Chicago, where it was established in 1919 by Fred and George Rayfield. The company was moved to Princeton in 1949 and bought by Gardner Denver in 1998. (BCR photo)

Air compressors of all sizes and shapes are waiting to be taken by a forklift into semi trucks to be shipped to customers. (BCR photo)
