Owen's Bottle Works was a a branch of the Owens-Illinois Glass Company based in Toledo, Ohio which had three other glass plants in West Virginia, including Fairmont, Huntington, and Kanawha City. All plants used the revolutionary Owens bottle making machine, which was invented by West Virginia native Michael Owens in 1903. The factory in Fairmont was built in 1910 on 40 acres of property and originally ran 24 hours a day while employing 200 workers. Around 180,000 bottles were produced daily. In March of 1982 the Fairmont plant was closed. Published by I. Robbins and Son. (From postcard collection legacy system.)
