Historical NotesA baby bottle made by the Oil City Glass Company as a premium. The premium glass bottle was manufactured by Oil City Glass Co., c. 1960, a business founded to preserve jobs in Oil City after an unpopular decision by the Knox Corporation to close their Oil City Glass Bottle Company branch in 1952.
