Comment history for NorthCoast

NorthCoast (anonymous) says...

Mr. Paulsey, the use of 42 gallons for a standard oil barrel dates to the mid-1860s in Pennsylvania where they were using many sizes of barrels, but mostly the standard 40 gallon wine barrel. The additional two gallons became the standard in the oil industry in 1872.
