- Knolle Jersey Milk Carton - The quest for a shatter-proof milk container prompted John Van Wormer to patent a paper carton in 1915. Many processors and distributors continued to use breakable glass bottles, but, after 1937, mechanized production made the disposable, wax-coated folded cartons inexpensive and indispensable liquid containers. The iconic design, a box with a gable-end top with a pouring or drinking spout, remains the industry standard today.

- Turner & Wescott Milk Bottle Opener, 1932-1958 - Dairies have supplied fresh milk products to consumers in glass bottles since the late 1800s. Dairies sealed the bottles with glass, metal, or cardboard caps for spill-free deliveries. Turner & Wescott, a Pennsylvania dairy operating into the late 1900s, shipped its products in wide-mouthed bottles with a metal cap. Customers needed an opener like this to pry off the cap.
