Henry Zubiller Jr. was born in New York City in 1859, a year before his father, Henry Zubiller Sr. started a bottling business on 337 8th st. on March 17th, 1860 (St. Patrick's Day). Henry Jr. and his brother Paul both became partners with their father in the business when they came of age. When Henry entered it was named H. Zubiller and Son, which is the name embossed on this bottle. When Paul entered, it became known as H. Zubiller's Sons. after the name changed, the father, Henry Zubiller Sr. retired. The two sons then moved their business to 190 Stanton st.
Henry Zubiller Jr. was the proprietor of the Arbor hotel in Manhattan, where the annual dinner of the Trustees of the Bottlers and Manufacturers Association was held. Henry himself was one of the earliest members.
Henry Zulliber Jr. died on November 12th, 1903, after he fell off of a Trolley. He did not feel the effects of the fall until three days later where he died in bed. Nowhere is stated what the exact cause of death was, but I think that it was either internal bleeding, or a head injury.
