I didn't realize that Poland Spring water was an old brand--I thought it was a more current brand of bottled water!

I'd never heard of them, LOL.

I recognized a lot of others on the list though.

I'm surprised they didn't have Colt on there.  His first company was founded in 1836, and his second (more successful) was started in 1846.

Smith and Wesson founded in 1852.
