No, wait, that's not right. He must mean this 1873 time capsule:
http://www.rmsc.org/capsule/2000%201%20305.htm
1873 Rochester Time Capsule
Warfield & Co. Mecca Oil Blacking, Advertisement
Warfield & Co. had its offices and warehouse at 85-87 Exchange Street in Rochester. Under the leadership of Richard N. Warfield, it
was a leading distributor and manufacturer of a wide variety of oil products. Records indicate that Warfield & Co. sold a wide
variety of oils from natural as well as mined sources. Included in its 1871 list of products are Sperm Oil, Lard, Elephant, Seal,
Olive, Wool, Mecca Lubricating [a brand name], Extra Va. Rock, B.W. Whale, Virginia Rock, Lard Compound, Kerosene, Benzine, Sperm
Signal, Oil Stain, Engine, Paraffin, Engine Lathe, and Extra Machine. By 1873, Warfield & Co. was stressing machinery and burning
oils. The company advertisement in the city directory that year claimed "COMMUNICATION WITH FACTORY EVERY TEN MINUTES BY STREET
CAR."
This piece is an advertisement for Mecca Oil Blacking, listing "What it Will Do, and What it Will Not Do." It is one of 21
individual pieces contributed to the time capsule by Richard N. Warfield
Yes, of course, these days, it's really all about oil.
