First output of bottles from California Glass Insulator Co.

FIRST OUTPUT OF

GLASS BOTTLES

Product of New Factory

Delivered to Local Firm

The first order of bottles manufactured in Long Beach by the recent installed additional unit of the California Glass insulator company was delivered to a Long Beach merchant this morning when the glass company delivered a portion of a car load of bottles to the Crystal Bottling works.

The bottle making department of the glass company has been in operation about one week and is overwhelmed with orders. They recently received an order of 500 gross of bottles from a Los Angeles firm and are working on this order. The bottles manufactured by the company are a great advertisement to the city bearing the imprint "Long Beach" on each bottle together with the name of the manufacturing company.

The California Glass Insulator company was induced to locate its plant here through the efforts of the Chamber of Commerce and with a few weeks after the company had signed final papers workmen began the erection of buildings. Work proceeded rapidly and the plant has been making insulators for some months. The company has ten acres of ground so arranged that the plant can be enlarged by the addition of units for the manufacture of other glass ware than insulators and the completion of the bottle department marks the addition of the first unit. The plant is one of the most modern in the United States and glass manufacturers from Eastern cities have visited it with a view of learning the best methods of making glass.
