Universal » Potteries, Inc., have questioned 5 me as to why no mention was ‘ made of The Oxford Tile Company and its prior ownershipThe Oxford Pottery Com- 1 pamy plant was organized in 1 1913, In 1929 it acquired the i factory originally started by Charles L. Casey in 1900; in 1934 j The Oxford Pottery Companv amended their charter and ( changed the name to Universal ^ Potteries, Inc. All of this means that The ()xford Tile plant is the v oldest continuous rnanufac- ^ turing facility in the Cambridge,ii • ..I am sure publication of the reasons that no mention was ^ made of The Oxford Tile Company in the Anniversary 1 Issue will be of interest to former employes of the com- | '• pany.(I.I).
