    Description

    Bottles-
    Offered are small glass bottles with embossing that reads "Edison Battery Oil, Made in USA, Thomas A. Edison Incorporated, Bloomfield, NJ USA" plus Thomas A Edison signature.  From what I can find out, the "Incorporated" wording was used starting in 1911.  Apparently these were used primarily by the rail roads for their batteries to keep the acid from evaporating.  Assume could have been used in any similar battery operating system.  Measure 4" tall, don't know volume.  Bottom has a keystone logo, the No. 400 pus individual numbers.  Are clean, chip free, perhaps never used.
