Joseph Benjamin Jacobs (1887 – 1965) was born and educated in Atlanta, GA. On April 1, 1919, Isadore. M. (I.M.) Weinstein and a partner, Herman Gross, formed the Atlanta Linen Supply Company, with total start-up capital of $1,700. Gross sold out to his partner in 1920 but Weinstein quickly secured two new partners, Abraham J. Weinberg, and Joseph B. Jacobs. Mr. Jacobs purchased a substantial interest in the Southern Linen Service in 1922, forming the superbly successful trio of Messrs. Weinstein, Weinberg and Jacobs. The trio’s wise counsel, keen business judgment and executive ability were powerful factors in the company’s growth. In 1922 Jacobs opened the company's first branch in Birmingham, Alabama. In 1928 the National Linen Service Corporation was formed, opening sixteen new plants in 16 progressive cities.
