BL Here is a vintage, BIM (blown in mold), 8.75 inch tall, QUART, clear glass Hutchinson Hutch soda mineral water bottle. Embossed in slug plate: A. Kemp / Red Jacket / Mich. in bold letters. Hard one to find from the Keewenaw in the U.P. (Upper Penninsula) of Michigan. What is now Calumet was settled in 1864, originally under the name of "Red Jacket", named for a Native American Chief of the Seneca tribe. Until 1895 the name "Calumet" was used by the nearby town of Laurium, Michigan; present day Calumet was not legally named so until 1929. Red Jacket grew due to the copper mines in the area. It was incorporated as a town in 1867. The copper mines were particularly rich; the Boston-based Calumet and Hecla Mining Company produced more than half of the USA's copper from 1871 through 1880. In addition to copper mining and smelting, the region also supported the dairy industry and truck farming. Many immigrants (from Poland, etc.) settled there in the late 19th century.
