RE: (erielack) Water bottles...
For the two complete Top 100 Traffic Accounts lists I have, Pacific
Vegetable Oil is only on the 1974 list, at #99 with 2,126 units. Paul B. is
correct in that the balance of the top 10 was steel (5) and auto
manufacturers (2), with UPS, Allied Chemical and Agway rounding it out.
