A little Rayo History:The Rayo Lamp was manufactured by the Bradley & Hubbard Mfg. Co., in Meriden, CT. The flame spreader’s first patent is Nov. 30, 1894, then called “Perfection” which were initially made under contract with the Standard Oil Co. One story is you got a free Rayo if you bought 15 gallons of Standard Oil kerosene. The Trademark for the name RAYO remainedactive under Eastern Standard, Esso, Humble Oil and lastly Exxon Corp. until 1988! B&H began to advertise and sell it to retailers like Montgomery Ward, (they must have paid royalties to Standard Oil for the use of the name). Its sole purpose was to help Standard Oil sell kerosene.
