Don't know if this will help, but George Miller and Elizabeth Jorgenson
refer to 3 oz. and 4 oz. Golden Gate Ovals in a Parks Canada 1986
publication. They were referred to in a 1908 catalog published by the
Sydenham Glass Co. of Wallaceburg, Ontario. Not much information is
provided, but you can read the entire article in the SHA website.
