Local Honours at the Paris Exhibition – Kilner Brothers

November 1878

Mexborough Times, November 29.

Local honours at the Paris Exhibition in 1878

Messrs Kilner brothers, glass bottle manufacturers of Conisbrough and Thornhill Lees, have been awarded a silver medal, for general excellence, by the jury at the late exhibition held at Paris.

This is a fourth prize medal won by the firm, who may well feel proud of their position.

In 1862, the only medal given, was awarded them at London.

They received one at Paris in 1875, and another at Philadelphia in 1876.

We congratulate them on their success.
